The color version was much warmer as I took this photo about 20 minutes before sunset. Nice gentle side lighting. Problem was some purple fringing (which I hardly ever get...) around the tree branches at the top and in the distance treeline. Couldn't address it in Basic editing adequately, so I played with a B&W conversion (thought I might go there anyway to check it out).

Did get some exercise. My remote battery was dead so I used the 10 second timer, pre-focused, then ran up the hill to get in position. :-)

This is a beautiful photograph except for the over exposed sky. Reminds me of an Andrew Wyeth painting. Your composition, textures, story, and sepia tones are perfect.
