Drum Castle - Aberdeenshire
I posted a b&w shot of this in the sharing section but decided to keep this wider angle shot in colour.
I carried out a fair bit of manipulation on it in Photochop...selective colour adjustments, dodge & burn etc. Does it look overprocessed? I need to take a step back from it.

the stonework is a little 'contrasty'* for my taste but I like it, on the whole. Looks like you've gone to town with the unsharp mask?

Part of the problem with the sharpening is my new save for web settings. I started using 'bicubic sharpening' from the 'image size' tab and it seems to overdo it a little. |

Good shot, but I think it is just tending to look a little over-processed, not always easy to judge when you're on top of it.
I saw that place on 'Most Haunted' it's a really spooky place, not that I believe in that stuff.

Bachs, I don't need to mention sharpening etc you know that already.
I love the composition but you were let down by the weather. I know some might think that strange ( nice blue sky and all that ) but this castle is screaming out for gloomy, dark, foreboding weather. You know what I mean, typical Scottish weather. I do like the B&W version.  Cameron |

The front wall also seems to be bowed out, could the CS2 distort tool fix this?
