I was really pleased with this particular photo from the Shropshire ruins. Brought a nice bottle of Mead from the Heritage hut too, bonus. Unfortunately nearby Lilleshall had local kids climbing all over the walls thus ruining my day :punch: Cheers Alan Haughmond Abbey, Shropshire by Alan...

Number 1. Wow. Just wow. Now that is what I aspire to. Cheers Alan

Thank you Geof I couldn't figure out why it was so blue from the camera. Sequential images were either very, very blue, slightly blue and even a touch warm. I guessed this was due to the different shutter speeds I was trying. I'm certainly finding light room faster and easier to use Thanks Alan

Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for that. Really appreciate the knowledge Thanks Alan

The photograph is alive. Its wonderful. I could actually be there. In simple terms, how do you post process this to such wonderful effect? I have Elements 9 but nowhere can I find how to produce such stunning images other than the very basics. Its how you apply it I suppose. Which is where I...

I've never seen anything like that before. I really like the effect. Cheers Alan

Thought so. Ive just noticed who the author is - It's Silvano. Your work is excellent. I must like your work as the ones I have viewed recently have me drooling.

Holy cow! You live there!!! WOW! My favourite photograph from this evenings viewing. Cheers Alan
