I think the Silver Efex Harsh filter was maybe too harsh, I have just done another for which I used a softer filter, that was harsh enough, need to start from an NEF really to get good results.
Each image is individual. I don't completely agree with this 'recipe' idea unless you are doing loads of similar images, when of course it would be invaluable. I try to vary my subjects and compositions as much as I can, while I can see the benefits, they are not much use for me.
Will post the latest 're-worked' image shortly.
I am having some issues with artefacts, I think they may be related to my graphics card, apparently my GPU isn't particularly compatible with Ps, or Lr, so maybe it isn't very compatible with Nik software either...
What I need is a nice new Mac Pro.
