A very well chosen standpoint to photograph the castle from, Steve. The lines and shadow is fantastic.

thanks Marty, the shadow was a bonus, but I did like the viewpoint with the Lead-in.

Thanks Mike and Richard. It took a bit of dodging and burning to get the tones where I wanted them but I feel it was worth the effort and paper.

A great print, Steve. Dodging and burning has been accomplished very effectively. I wouldn't have known it had been done. You have acheived a full range of tones in what must have been quite contrasty lighting.
Alex.

Classic shot of the castle with the towers receding into the distance. Good example of excellent darkroom technique.
