This image is best viewed enlarged: click onto it to open a larger version in a separate window, and click onto that image to further enlarge it – recommended.
The view out across a misty landscape, early in the day.
Silver Efex Pro 2, which I always wholeheartedly recommend for black and white processing, gives the resulting image its take on the look of a Tin Type photograph.
There are earlier shots in this series here: 1 2 .
Technique: Z 6 with 70-300 Nikkor lens at 116mm; 400 ISO; Lightroom, using the Camera Vivid v2 picture control; Silver Efex Pro 2, starting at the Tin Type preset; at Rose Farm, on the Somerset Levels south of Tarnock; 3 May 2019.

Much more satisfying enlarged! 🙂 I like the angle you had, kind of looking through the background sheeps’ legs. What a pleasant place to be in the morning!

I especially like how the foliage in the extreme foreground echoes the line of trees further back. It and the fog contain the sheep, while the little gap in the tree line lets my eye escape to the hills. The tree-line gap almost lines up with the first dip (reading from the left) in the hills. I’m left feeling that things are both contained and free. I hope my overanalyzing doesn’t bother you, Adrian. When I first saw this photograph, I just felt like Michael. It was only because I wanted to stick around, that the other thoughts came to mind.

No, not bothered by your analysing at all, Linda, in fact I very much welcome it, as its always good to get someone else’s take on things – it adds to my knowledge and experience of images, and I value that – thank you! Adrian 🙂

Bucolic. Some photographs allow me to feel the air and hear the sounds. This is one of them.
