[QUOTE="IanCD, post: 17930, member: 5731"] Having just joined, said 'Hi', been welcomed, and had very helpful responses to a question, this is looking like a really good forum to have discovered..! :) This part of the forum is a great idea - something I've maybe been looking for, without realising (!) Here's one of a set, and a link to the full set on SmugMug... (Hmm, bb code icons aren't working here either, just now). The URL is: [URL="http://iancds.smugmug.com/Spaces/Ruins-of-Ashwick-Grove-Manor/15986827_niXzW#1199210677_azrgz"] Ruins of Ashwick Grove Manor, Nettlebridge Woods - IanCDs' Photos[/URL] First full day out with camera on my own... so really first one with a digital SLR... Ashwick Grove Manor ruins, Nettlebridge woods... near Oakhill, Somerset Struck me as a very atmospheric place first time I found it a few years ago, and been wanting to go back to capture some of the feeling it evoked for me... The light was a bit dull / flat... no beams of sunlight, mist, etc - I'll go back again early morning / late evening on a sunnier day, and also in autumn, hoping to catch some ground mist and in winter with frost / snow. Any feedback much appreciated... composition, BW vs colour, exposure, post-processing of RAW, etc. Resized sample of one shot attached... not necessarily 'best', but fairly typical of the set. Thanks in anticipation, Ian [/QUOTE]
