Default That tower gets everywhere.





But I don't think that lamb will make it up it.

Great photo Max. You are clearly good with a camera, so have you thought of doing a photography course at college? I know you are thinking of going back to studying and though this might be an option. Hope I'm not being intrusive

OOPS! Forgot to add, your photo looks like a watercolour painting Max, did you enhance it or is that how it came out? It's lovely and restful. Do you sell your photos? I'd love a copy of this one if you do

It's a fantastic pic Max.

However, when you look at the 'pre periscope building, you really wonder how anyone could have imaged that it would fit in there.

5 mins to design on a PC, 5 mins to knock up, isn't there anyone who is out there who wants to create another '3 graces' with propper stone and a good bit of thinking?

Ahh but you see Cadfael, today's buildings are not made to last like the grand old buildings such as the 3 graces. We live in a throwaway society and that seems to apply to architecture as much as anything else, sadly. None of these new buildings will still be there when our grandchildren/great grandchildren are old and grey but I bet the 3 graces will still be there, unless some lunatic decides to knock them down on a whim of course.

Nah I don't do a photography course and never will, prefer to pick It up through experience.

Made 3 separate tiff exposure files from the original digital negative and put then Into photomatix to generate a High dynamic range image, then played with the colours and exposure In Photoshop.

Nah, I just do amateur and don't sell images.

I did this one too.



Stepped over the chain railings so the ugly stone path wasn't In the shot.
