A Week 'Up North' 2

Following my first set of pics, here's some more!

The Singing Ringing Tree
Slightly more abstract view




'Atom' another of the panopticons
Rather difficult to get an outside shot that does it justice




'Atom' inside looking out - note the raindrops on the steel ball!




Ashurst Beacon
That which we were photographing - sunshine and showers!




Red squirrel
Now you can say you dislike this shot - I had the use of a 350D which was OK (but of course nowhere near as good as my Sigma!)




Comments of the good, bad or indifferent are all welcome, as usual!

Re: A Week 'Up North' 2

Love the composition in #1.

How was the third one processed re the exposure?

The last one is probably your best shot I have seen from you re - exposure, contrast, sharpness etc....you try anything differently than usual?

Thanks, P-E!

#3 was exposed to the brightest (just off burning) and then a touch of dodge to bring up the vague shadow detail

The last COULD have been the rubbish Canon! LOL!
Lens was very similar to the one I used on my Sigma to take the other

Well P-E, some people just aren't grateful for the use of a decent camera whilst squizzling, even if the lens left a lot to be desired

Would've taken far too long to teach her which button to press!

And I had guessed that you might be deluded enough to think a Kwappy Kwanon to be good, P-E!

Re: A Week 'Up North' 2

You missed a trick with 2, coulda had a really interesting comp with a single hole and the various reflected holes on the nucleus if you've framed it up to avoid that crescent above it.

#3 I like very much with the patch of shorter grass in the foreground splitting it up.

Re: A Week 'Up North' 2

Cheers, Fiona, Malcolm!

Was never going to happen, Malcolm. Getting lower down would've just given sky out of the window and sky reflected windows - simpler, yes, but not so interesting
