Description

Hi everyone!Looks like it's back to Scotland,again!Lol! What you are seeing here is the main entrance to Balmoral which has been the Scottish Royal residence since 1852.It was originally a 16th century tower house built by the powerful Gordon family. I have hesitated to upload this shot.It's not the most exciting shot ever,lol!But I think it looks okay framed like this.And the shot actually has a sky in it,miracle of miracles...and that's a very rare thing,believe me! I also like that it has this almost illustrated look to it.I did nothing to this shot except crop it and clone out a big ol' barrel that was sitting in the middle of nowhere! I hope you like it.As always your comments and opinions are soooo appreciated.Thank you for looking!!! Thank you as well for all your thoughtful b-day wishes on my thank you (dedi) pic,"From the Bottom Up",and your sympathies regarding the death of 'Lappy' in,"In Memoriam".LOL,'Lappy' would be so pleased... ;) Have a wonderful rest of the week!!! Hugs,Marlene :)

I love castles, and you really did this one justice. I love the framing with the trees.

Oh yes, now that you've told me - there really is a sky lol. Sorry, had to type that. :-))) Btw.: there's not only sky, there's a lot of depth you've achieved with having that "road" leading the eye into the image and there's a fine compo with having the trees framing the building which is not centered. So to me, this is fine work. One idea: this may be fine from a lower position? Perhaps ...
