This was a new editing experience for me. Shot was processed in NIK Silver Efex twice. One layer with a strong blue filter and another with a strong green filter. Then merging the two layers in darken mode. That's why both the grass and the sky are dark.

Post-challenge: Well, this was unexpected, thanks a lot guys for all the kind votes and comments!
I've added my original image, so you can see the difference on the b&w processing, happy to share more details on the settings. Thanks again!

Thanks on the editing comments! I realized last night that I really don't know how filters affect b&w. This gives me an excuse to go play and see what I'm missing. :)
Great point of view, very well composed with excellent focus and I really like the post-processing. I think this will do very well or at least it should in my opinion.
