Castlerigg

After an early start at Derwent Water and the Ashness Bridge I headed over to Castlerigg Stone Circle. This was taken as the early morning light lit up the side of the stones and the resident sheep. I decided (with help from Poppy) that the B&W conversion was a stronger image than my original colour shot.

B+W usually means very strong contrast. This is what I wouldn't mind seeing here in addition to the midtones and a little bit of subtle highlights.

I think the sky and clouds are OK but other than that I agree with this.

Thanks Alf, I didn't want to over contrast the foreground making the stones and sheep too dark.
Had the sun been behind a cloud perhaps the foreground wouldn't stand out so much.
