Church

Taken during our visit to Somerset, sadly I didn’t manage to get the name (One day I’ll try to look it up on Google maps).

It was one of those days where it was mostly grey and windy but interspersed with the occasional bright spell, it was just a case of waiting for the right moment. This was the best I got.

Processed in Lightroom 5 and Topaz B&W Effects2.

Bexhill Beach.

Some fabulous rock formations are exposed when the tide is out and yes I was stood in the water, wellies on of course. It was this shot that I believe the second of my tripod’s rubber feet got lost!

  Filters used: ND4 + ND4 Grad. Processed in Lightroom 5.

Thanks for stopping by.

Tarr steps

One of my Fave shots so far this year.

The contrast of light was so great that I had to bracket exposures even with my ND grads on. Blended in Photomatix then converted to mono using Topaz B&W Effect2, addition work in Lightroom 5.

Thanks for stopping by.
