Peruvian Sunset Observer (B&W Conversion 2)

Description

As noted above, this is my custom conversion of this shot. I may have gone further with it than intended in this lesson, but... :-)
I played with Orange a lot to affect the foreground field, used blue and aqua (lowering) to create a more dramatic sky. I also brought up the green/yellow to give more detail to the row of plants in front that were otherwise quite dark. I used the correction brush to brighten up his face a tad, and create some extra shadows in the hills, and the Grad filter tool to also affect the sky a bit more.
