Tipp Ruins C&C

Well,my first post here.I visited some castles and abbeys in Tipp at the weekend.I usually don't focus too much on the photography side of things when visiting these places(just have a basic digital camera.)But I'd like to get an idea where I'm at with photography and some tips would be great.Be as harsh as ye like.











Thanks,LimerickStudent

The first 2 were taken in Thomastown Castle (close to Golden.) The next was in Grallagh Castle near the Horse and Jockey.And the last 2 were taken in Athassel Abbey in Golden.Athassel is massive,you can easily spend an hour or 2 wandering and climbing around it.I'd definitely reccomend visiting it if you're passing through Golden.

That's pretty good deafvision.I was messing around with it earlier,mine was a bit brighter but the darkness definitely works a lot better.

I tried the 1st and 4th one in black and white.I kind of messed up the dodging and burning in the 1st one though.





Thanks,LimerickStudent

Very nice indeed I think it works better in B&W. I really like the graphical quality of the 3rd one

3rd one is great!

B&W treatment is excellent, the arch shot has gone from a good shot to a great shot.. amazing the difference B&W makes to shots especially ruins.
