Memorial to WWI Soldiers

A memorial to 1st World War soldiers. The original image was light grey sandstone so lent itself to the B&W treatment. I applied a LR4 canned B&W preset.
When I get the right conditions I shall revisit this subject, shoot raw, shallower DOF and apply a little bit of extra processing. I'd probably like to see the background dark and the subject lighter.
