Thanks Andy.
PP consisted of darkening the sky about 1 stop and giving the shadow areas a little help, not much more. Mono conversion was done in Silver Exex Pro 2 with red filter.
I've been very pleasantly surprised at how good the camera is in the iPhone, it definitely produces useable images.

Impressive shot Richard - that sky! And from a blimmin phone

Just goes to show that what's most important is knowing what could make a good shot, how to compose it and then what to tweak afterwards. Even with a couple of grands worth of camera I'm sure I couldn't come up with something like that. Bravo

At Montrose Field, North Sea. Perfect weather for it.

Thanks Mike - you're most kind.
I'll admit the camera in the iPhone 6 is actually very good indeed, and has been a most pleasant surprise. If I'm out and about and just 'see' a photo that needs to be taken, then the phone does a great job. The Wigsley Tower was one I took whilst out driving for work - saw this old tower and had to have a snap of it. The skies/field one below is about 5 mins drive from our house:

Travelled down to Cambridge to visit an old friend who I haven't seen in 30+ years. Got to meet her 2 Springers, one of whom is Bertie (who's so utterly gorgeous I could've brought him home):

Note to self: I really must take a decent camera to work in case there's a typical 'Lincs Sunset' on the way home. We may not have mountains in Lincolnshire but ye gods do we get fantastic skies.
Took this on the iPhone 6s...

Lovely image, Mitch - always great to see kids enjoying a positive relationship with animals, and dogs in particular.
Another Lincolnshire sunset, this one taken on Hooks Lane near Navenby:
