Thank you for this challenge. I have been inspired by all the wonderful edits! Here is my take. I wanted to create a fantasy night effect. First into Lightroom to stitch the pano and do basic adjustments. Then into PSE 2024. Applied Nik Color Efex solarisation filter. Added the moon and a starry sky. Some levels adjustments. Added some clouds generated in PSE. Lightroom Adjustments  Layers   Kind regards Chris |

Here is a black and white version of my previous take made using a gradient map and a slight levels adjustment. Kind regards Chris  |

The gradient map worked well for your conversion, Chris. I know it is a method favored by a few of our members.

I really appreciate all your efforts, they all provided a slightly different dimension for me to consider in the future. Fotofrank - ibb.co/RQcqLy3Jan. 22nd submission. The moon in the subtle sky colors along with the snow caps on Mount Lemon (part of the Santa Catalina Mountains) are really nice. Helen - ibb.co/whTFyp3Jan 20th submission. The clear sky with a few stars and the moon over over the snow caps on Mount Lemon (part of the Santa Catalina Mountains) Lillas - ibb.co/KWvrxVpJan. 21st submission The framed mountains with the sky added is a nice dimension. WELL DONE Regards Pete |
