Coffee anyone? To warm up the foggy morning series?

The colors here are very rich and have a lot of depth. Nice!

Thanks Melinda! I was thinking that these tones could work really well on certain kinds old building landscapes.

Was this one of the presets in Topaz B&W – chocolate or hazelnut? Or maybe some other sort of dessert-sounding one?

Well, since you ask, I had to go look. One of the minor annoyances of the Topaz product line is it does not seem to save workflow data in any retrievable form. But I found it again. Topaz B&W Effects | Van Dyke Brown Collection | (you guessed it:) Coffee Dynamic preset (with some tweaks).
However, any food with Dynamic in it’s name should be suspect. I like my food to settle well, and not be dynamic upon consumption, coffee included.

I think you may have hit on the best combination of effects with this. It’s gorgeous.

Thanks Ken, I’m glad that you like it. I was pretty pleased with the colours when I got it to look like this. Sadly I did not make a preset out of it, so will have to try again. And it is partly what I do in LR and partly in Topaz that makes these combinations work, so they are hard to repeat.

Beautiful lonely tones!

Thank you Mark. The fog, and long ocean horizons, are lonely places, so it is great the tones have added to that impression.
