 VERY basic. RAW conversion at the defaults. Convert to BW, tinted to sepia. Unsharp mask, twice.

Amazing, another clinker, but it looks like the voters didn't like the sepia entries in general, for this one to place 121 of 385 with a 5.4. I entered it because I thought the old time attire of the horse and rider works well in the old-time tint of sepia.

I'd prefer if the subject wasn't almost in the center.

Nice detail. Would prefer more space on the right for the horse to 'travel into' though.
