The Rules:
1. Lr Rule 5 - Enjoy
2. The Usual stuff:
All work must be done in either ACR or LR except for cropping, sharpening and using your noise filter. You can make some MINOR changes in PSE/CS3 if you want. If you use a preset, please list the name and a link to the source if you have that information. Also, if you'd like, please describe your workflow. [Or not, but fess up and tell us what you did.]

Used 2 presets on this and did a little masking in photoshop. Will have to go back and find the names of one of the presets. One was called HUH

Looks good, Suzi. I love door pictures.

I have been very busy with a birthday reportage, but I would not miss this ACR challenge:

Thanks for playing, Michel. Funny how we're all treating those garage doors in about the same way.

Got 2 more done. First one converted to B/W and then toned. Cropped. Second one, used preset called sepia fur helle fotos and then alot of adjustments

Suzi - did you put a reddish tone on the B&W? Did anyone have trouble with the back-lit picture? The light was so beautiful that day.

No, Sunny, it is a bluish tone. You are asking about the top one right. I am stilling working on the horse one, I love that one. Also the top one here
