You need to dust that shelf. I hadn't really noticed until I looked at the B&W
conversion.

Well, I did the B&W render, and just to make Ann and Cotty happy, (though why
anyone would want to make Cotty happy is beyond me), I tried a new crop. I was
able to do most of the work in DxO Mark with just a couple of steps in
Photoshop. If they had a text tool...

As usual comments are welcome but may be totally ignored.
However I have a small rant about DxO Mark Optics Pro 9.0. It really does try
to nanny you.
I have check for new profiles enabled by default. That way if I have a lens
that they have a profile for, I'm reminded to download it.
So, every time I open a directory or project with an image using a lens it
doesn't recognize, it makes a guess, and since it doesn't have profiles for the
Pentax M 85 f2.0, Pentax A 28mm f2.8, both lenses I use quite a bit, and now
the Sigma 17-70 f2.8~4.5, it's inventively wrong. So I don't download the
suggested module. It then tags the image with a red exclamation point, to let
me know I'm just being stubborn and DxO knows best.
It only gives me two choices, turn the feature off entirely, which I don't want,
since of course I'll forget to check if they actually do add a module for a lens
I have, or let it nag me, every time I start it up or change to a directory with
an unknown lens in it.
There is no option to tell the software it's wrong.
It's just annoying.

I cropped it a bit from the left to make the composition a little less
centered. Not sure I'd like it but I've toyed with the B&W. It's still
dreary and gray here, so I'll probably revisit that, I've got a lot of time
today.

That would be cracking in black and white.
Needs cropping to eliminate dead area at left.
