I de-saturated the image in camera raw and then did some selective contrast adjustments with the adjustment brush.
Opened in Photoshop and cropped the image and cloned out the wires.
Used select/colour range to adjust contrast in shadows midtones and highlights.
I then used Topaz B&W to add a slight tone and vignette.
Added some noise in Photoshop and then did a high pass sharpen.
Finally I added a border with canvas size.

Well as we have moved threads I'll post my entry here.
Tone mapped the image to bring out some more detail, zoom blur, converted to b+w with a sepia tint. using an action I made.

Probably best to not have 2 threads going at the same time as that will get very confusing.
