An alternative look at Chirk Castle

[Shaun Geraghty]

Chirk Castle, Wales. Nikon D50 + Sigma 10-20

I used a wide-angle to emphasise the effect, then cnverted to B&W, but left a hint of colour. Then used the solarizing effect in Elements, which brought out the strange brown and blue in the sky. Perhaps not to everyones taste I guess but just trying something a little different from the norm :?

Nice one Shaun - good to see an interesting shot, unlike some of the tourist shots from the attention seekers...:roll:

Excellent results! Thanks for sharing.

Very , Shaun! I've never played with those techniques in elements but I really like the results. It almost looks like you used a fusheye lens for the shot. Very interesting subject as well!

Thanks for sharing!
