Thanks for the comments!

OOC NEF (unprocessed JPEG converion):

B&W (still not quite happy with it):

Processing was in Capture NX2 and CS5 with the main effect coming from the Detail Extractor in Color Efex Pro 4 (color shot)
Detail extractor pulls back the wiring I tried to clone out though, so I need to do a better job of that. The license plate has to go as well.
After a night's sleep, I thing I need to go a little less heavy on the detail extractor.

Thanks again for the comments.

I'm a noob but thought I might chime in... personally I like the black and white version... it's an old truck so it looks kind of funny to me in the first pic... kind of painted and pretend but the black and white seems to look really good. What did you do to the sky in the first one?

Lovely shot though, do you know what sort of truck it is?
