G’day Phillip,
Oh yeah!
Your “mucking around” has worked very well indeed. This sepia has a really good tonal range and the added contrast has helped model the horses and plowman very well.
Greatr work man!

Great action shot Phillip. I can see the horses working—-their feet in the air, and horses leaning. The sepia tones certainly suit the era this photo belongs to as well.. A fav
