Valle Crucis Monastery 1


Valle Crucis Abbey 1, originally uploaded by foto-art.

Valle Crucis Monastery, near Llangollen in Wales. This is a typical architecture type of shot for me, making use of doorways and windows as elements and shapes composed in the frame. The sun was fairly well to the side on this shot, which helped to enhance the texture of the stonework. If I was going to do any more to this I might square it up a little in Photoshop using Image/Rotate/Arbitrary and perhaps rotate it clockwise one or two degrees. I might also go into Image/Adjust/Variations and make the image a bit warmer by adding red and yellow. This is one of the few shots i took in colour and it was the warmth of the colour of the stone that struck me.
