Taken at Anglesey Abbey, Cambridgeshire this weekend. 400D, Sigma 17-70 on a tripod and auto exposure bracketed three shot blast :) Added sepia tone, some tone mapping to recover some of shadow detail. Some manual vignetting and careful use of dodge and burn. Final sharpen, and that's it. Who knows how the ghost got there :D

Full size.

Me, of course. Two layers, added stock photo of MQoS, set background layer to 95% opacity. Done :)

Bit of a lash job really.

I do like the ghostly effect you've created.

Only thing spoiling it for me is the leaning verticals, the left side of the building is tipping towards the right.

Good job :thumbs:. I like the leaning verticals - adds to the sense of drama of the image.

First thing I did was to check it was actually a JPEG. You just know that if it's a GIF, 20 seconds in, there will be some ghoul jump up in front of you. Leaving you with a wardrobe malfunction!

have been workin there since monday and got one day left tomorrow, changing the TRVs on the radiators. its a very creepy place when ** on ** own and every room is very dark as has to be cos of the paintings. interesting place to visit ***. if ya ever go make u you try and go down to wine seller. looks like something out of a horror film. infact all the rooms do
