Very nice ones here. The title is show us your finest and I think that's fully met.

samskpun : nice leading lines and very moody dark

senia : dramatic sky and nice composition

stanbury : nice conversion. maybe you can bring up the shrub area at the right a bit to show a bit more shadow detail. Also I would do a perspective correction in PP, so the tower doesn't fall backwards

Aldaer : B&W really helps to bring out the texture and detail here. Nice

cunningpaul : nice and sharp and a conversion that brings across the cold weather very well. Almosts looks like an IR in the background.

Keep em coming
You can see the April Foolishness 2023 exhibition here Another great show of the talent we have on Dyxum

@pegelli
Thanks - I for one appreciate the feedback. I've tried adjusting things and the two versions can be viewed here (Flickr slideshow), for those that are interested.

Stanbury: That's is a very powerful picture inside Kings College Chapel. The symmetry fits good, and the conversion is good. I find it a bit dark though in the lower parts. I can see that there are some ornaments in there but they are too dark to see what they are.
