Day 7 Worsley Canal B&W.jpg

Comment by option:
The black and white pattern on the house make this a natural choice for b&w... however, I would try converting it again. There is no contrast between the greens and reds, something you should be able to do easily, even in something simple like Picasa:



Hope you dont mind, thats my quick take on a more contrasty BW conversion. Selective BW, filtered red, in Picasa. You could probably do alot better with channel mixer and more time...

Cheers! (I'm not bored at all today...)

is there an unoccupied guest house on the grounds?
Beautiful place, nice shot, the gentleman and his dog add a homey feeling to an otherwise imposing home.

While I like the colors, patterns, and reflections, I am not a fan of the acute angle here. At first I thought I was looking at a swimming pool. A couple of degrees rotation clockwise would greatly reduce the impact of the tilting, and still achieve a unique presentation.

Good work bringing out those rays. The way they're angled out is perfect as they seem to conform towards the center boat. Lovely tones in the water aswell.

I like how the top of the building has a copper tone to it. Nice shot.
