    Re: Castle

    Really nice composition, Pete. Only real gripe is that the side of the tallest portion of the castle seems very soft and much of the rest of it is a little soft. However, I see a lot more detail along the bridge. Because no one else mentioned this, maybe it is just me. I think a darker, more threatening sky would fit your PP better, but this works well as it is.

    Re: Castle

    Thanks Cindy, this is on the north west cost of Scotland taken when my wife and I were traveling to the Isle of Skye last year.

    Thanks Matt, the dark choppy water I think, coupled with the broody sky, fits the mood. I also think your ND filter would be great, I only wish I had one and this was a sunset shot, unfortunately time was an issue as we still had a ways to go this day.

    Appreciate the thoughts llewpics, yeah you're right it needs to go, stupid flag pole...

    Damnit GB I was happy with this till you pointed out that left outcrop now its ruined.....
    As far as the colour thing is concerned, the colour version was mainly greys and greens, so the B&W choice wasn't hard to make.

    Thanks Ken I hadn't noticed the softness, its not in the original image perhaps its something that occurred when sizing for web

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...

    I have no issues with you editing my photos

    Re: Castle

    Fantastic place !
    is this a silver efex conversion ?
    The blacks on the castle walls seem a bit to dark to me, maybe they're like that
    a more ominous sky would certainly fit the mood nicely

    I have not noticed the flag pole until mentioned here

    IQ looks as if it was scanned from a newspaper , I'm guessing it is due to all the downsizing and uploading to the forum ...
