My attempt at B&W landscape. Didn't quite get it, looks noisy.

thanks for looking

Maybe just a fraction of noise in the sky, everything else looks good to me.

Do you have the ability to work with layers? When I get this sort of issue I try to split the scene between layers so that it gives me the chance to apply different sharpening and noise reduction effects to various areas of the overall scene. Eg, one adjustment for the foreground and another for the sky.

Looks fine to me Sharon. As Geoff says, there is a low level noise in the sky but that's fine by me. The comp appears to lean a little to the left and that would be worth correcting but that's about all for me.

Looks pretty good to me, nicely composed.

Nice conversion. Nice scenery.

I like the image Sharon. If you can heal the blown out highlights in the reflections the image might look better To do this you can reduce the highlights selectively , if it doesn't work you might try some cloning

Majestic and inviting. Looks a bit tilted to me too. A fine scene and shot Sharon :-)

Binnur, thanks and yes the blown highlights suck. I am continuing to work on them.
Susan, thank you. I did correct the tilt, automatically in LR, with just a miniscule correction but yes it was tilted. One of my big things I need to start paying more attention to, as it's so easy to let the camera drive it.
