I like the toning and framing of this shot Mike. We as the viewer focus on the detail of the castle, the reflections and the eye is led into the image by the river.
Morning James or is it afternoon for you already. 🙂
Thanks! I always appreciate your thoughts and comments. The interesting thing about this image is that as a color version I never gave it two thoughts but when I was looking to convert to B&W the tones just worked for me. From this viewpoint though it is hard to take a bad picture of the castle.
I’m amazed at how well this scene works in black & white. It’s a stunning image, Mike. 🙂
Thanks Robin. I have been enjoying the monochrome conversion process lately… 🙂

Wishing you an enjoyable weekend…
Its just early afternoon with bright blue skies and soft sunlight. Hope you have a great weekend too Mike. Once again you are very welcome.
Sounds like perfect conditions for exploring. 🙂
Yes! I thought this as well, but the garden fences need cleaning and the hedges need cutting back. May be I will get a chance later this evening.
