Thanks old man. Truth is I did think so to, but could have gone one way or t'other with the conversion, and am at the end of my limits here with the d+b, as texture becomes too destructively over-contrasted. I really wanted the mids though, and the comment on church and real people is under the surface, which would have been impossible for me to convey if getting the rocks too "lifelike". Thus as it was I aimed for "real" people in a "disconnective" landscape, as a landie and also as social comment. Nicely spotted!
