It looks like a nice scene from this chapel Stuart.

Please help me understand a few things:

a. Was the BG the original view from the scene? And if so - why is it "black and white"?
b. There seems to be solar flare in the shot but no sun?

Overall the blending needs some fine-tuning, particularly the noticeable halos all along the chapel edges and the foliage edges on the LHS of the BG. :e3

Hi Stuart, looks like a lovely scene. Agree with Morkel's critique.

Stuart,

The noticable halos and B&W treatment on the BG hills are distracting and hurt the esthetics of the image IMO.

For this image I would crop right at the upper horizontal beam to better frame the building on top.
