@shailestha Thank you Shailesh. I used LR, I lowered the contrast (to the left) and then pushed the highlight, shadow, and clarity sliders all the way to the right. Most of my editing comes from me playing around, I have no idea what I am doing most of the time, but I am slowly learning. It was also a beautiful sunny day (all be it a bit cold) which also helped with the light. (had to repost this as I wanted to add that I used LR)
I have seen both... casting my vote for this one. I like the other shot's refections, very much, but prefer the clear details and light in this very nice b&w. I totally get your "I am just feeling around" thingy on the processing! :)
