Hi Philippe,

I struggle with the tones.  The dead grass and the concrete are pretty much
the same tone in BW, so it looks much flatter than I would like it to.
Still playing with it...thanks for looking!

Doesn't seem that hard to perk up.

Three different amounts of LCE, masked, in part with gradients, to different areas, some Levels and Curves. I imagine it can't be done the same in LR, without layers and masks.

I like these tonal values, but one could use a lighter hand.

There is a slight, wide, lighter halo around the photographer's shadow. I've knocked it down, but not seamlessly. I imagine it to be an artifact of previous processing, and thus not something one would worry about, starting from scratch.
