Thank you all for taking the time to view my images as well as your comments and suggestions.
I must admit that I am not that keen on the image from banehawi; I think the effect on the mountain detracts from the overall image.
I will try a small increase in brightness as suggested by mrswoolybill's modification because I like the increase in the depth of colour in the ice in the cave walls to the left of the image but, to me, the effect immediately to the right of the mountain is too much for what I was trying to achieve.
In chase's comments, you mention converting the image to sRGB; how do I do that?
I will have a go at stacking three exposures in HDR, which should be interesting as it is not something that I have done before.
Also, I will upload the image, less dust spot (I am embarrassed that I missed it during my processing)

Holy Storm
A great b&w image and wonderful composition, it is almost two images in one; firstly, you are drawn to the two boats and then you see the Lindesfarne Castle in the background. Also, I like the processing giving a contrasty, moody image. What software did you use?

There's a tree growing in the lake!
Thank you for your comments and suggestions (I am really annoyed that I missed it not being level) and thank you for your modifications, I particularly like No.8. I have photographed the tree on four or five occasions and on each visit the light and wind give very different images. I could bore you with the numerous images I have of the tree; I have certainly bored my wife with them all!
