Bodiam.
Filter: Cokin Z pro ND2 grad. Processed using Lightroom 5.7
Another view of the iconic Bodiam castle taken from a well trodden viewpoint which I call tripod corner. 🙂 For this shot I used my 10-20mm lens to utilise the trees and grass to help create a natural frame around the main subject.
Flood Reflection.
Filter: Cokin ND4 Grad. Processed using Lightroom 5.7
As the light got brighter I switched from using my ND8 grad to the ND4 and eventually an ND2 (for my castle shot a couple posts back). I always work in manual for my landscape work and so continuous reassessment of light levels is needed to get a good and balanced exposure to ensure the atmosphere of the scene is not lost. It was in this location that I had the most difficulty with frost forming on my filter due to being down a bank with the mist rising from the river. Â As usual, more cloud in the sky would have been nice. It’ll all come together eventually.
Thanks for visiting.

Shot on Hasselblad 500c, Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm f2.8, Ilford FP4.
This is the last shot that came out of the Hasselblad before the curtain got too cold and stuck. I had to letterbox this frame as the curtain had only partially opened, leaving the top and bottom of the negative unexposed.
The door’s always open

Medieval Morning.
Filter: Cokin Z pro ND2 grad. Processed in Lightroom 5.7.
Looking down the visitors walkway at the wonderful Bodiam castle. I took this a couple of weeks ago on a particularly cold and frosty morning. So cold in fact that frost started to form on my camera and filters!
Once called home.
