Nice B/W.

Very good framing.

The shadows in the foreground appear very dark, and the grass does not look quite right. I think you may have pushed something on the processing too far. Overall, I think it is a nice scene.

Very likeable. OTOH the cliffs seem very smooth, perhaps due to processing.

It's a fine composition, but indeed some tones are odd looking.

I have to agree with the B&W treatment. Some areas look flat (not much contrast) and others look a bit strange. I think that spending 5 or 10 minutes to redo B&W treatment wouldn't be wasted time.

Agreed.
