A slice of Cheddar

A slice of CheddarCheddar Gorge

Two views of Cheddar Gorge, Somerset. Both taken while walking down the long windy road back to the cafe and tourist shops.

Looking at both these photos I decided that a mono approach would suit the subject much better. I used my currently preferred Lightroom plugin for B&W, Topaz B&W Effects2. I do have other software that does a similar job but I’m finding Topaz just suits my style better. Some additional dodging and burning done using Adobe Lightroom.

If you like what you see just click on the Topaz link in the sidebar to either try out or purchase a copy for yourselves.
