No HDR was used John, it was a single image with adjustments made in NIK, but I'm inclined to agree with you.
Yes, just a wee bit over cooked but one heck of an image. I'd hang it on my wall.

I haven't actually switched but added the XT-1 to my Canon arsenal. I must admit that not only is this a fun camera, it quickly harkened me back to the Canon AE-1 film days. I've added some spectacular Fuji lenses that are stellar performers. So now, I am sitting on an huge Canon collection that I rarely use. My Dilemma is what to keep. Tossing around keeping the 7D II as it has a faster frame rate for my action work. Really not sure why I need my 5Dlll. So, I can recommend the Fuji but as others have said, give it a try first.

Had the opportunity to photograph some Gypsy horses at a ranch in Wyoming a few months back. They really are magical.

See, I wish I could think of stuff like that to say instead of "great shot, I love it!" But it is a great shot, and I do love it! 
Thanks Chuck! It helps to have in mind what you gleaned from the post processing so that others in this section might try some different tools of their own and pass them on. This was fun for me to work with and that is what I am concentrating on these days.

When you talk of the Topaz fisheye filter do you mean the one inside Topaz Lens Effects? I like your image from many points of view Byron - a most unusual structure, with sinuous lines and finely crafted appurtenances which are truly well delineated in monochrome.
Yes, Topaz Lens Effects. Thanks for your comments.

Recent quick trip to San Diego and saw this piece along the Harbor walkway. Played with it using Topaz fisheye filter and then did some cropping and brought it to Silver Effects Pro. Just having a bit of fun while on a break from the caregiver role.

Like it! Simple but interesting detail!
Thanks for looking and commenting. You know, I was composing for simplicity within a very chaotic mass of growth so I am delighted you saw this.

Don't post often but saw this challenge and then some beckoning coleus in our garden with only my cell phone at hand. So here you go.

Retrieved this while sorting through some earlier images concentrating on simplicity. Kinda renewed my interest in this topic. Feel free to comment and post your own artistic examples

TGWonderful. Use of textures. Might have to give this a try.

While this is not really a landscape, a featureless sky can make an effective canvas.

Good candidate for "your look". Thought the foreground was more interesting than the sky especially because of the blown highlights so I cropped and enhanced for texture and vibrancy.
