Southwell Minster Ruin

Another shot from the grounds of Southwell Minster, this time with my back to the Cathedral looking west. This old ruin - not sure what it was in a previous life, sits on the edge of the cemetery and looks like it might have housed the old bishop or his side-kicks in times past. Now heavily overgrown with ivy and nettles, the arch that was once a gable end, stand proud. Another RAW image with three 2-stop intervalled images combined in HDR. A tweak of contrast and saturation and a light frame to complete the image.

Southwell Minster

Southwell Minster, Nottingham. Shot taken on a lovely day, managed to snap this one as the sun hides behind a small cloud to remove heavy shadows. Taken in RAW format I then played with HDR to pull out more detail. I tried framing this shot using the tree's branches but the shot needed something at the bottom to balance it out - hence the use of graduation fade to black.
