Description
Moving inside the old edge tool works (sythes, bill-hooks etc..) that was powered by the weir in the last posting, there was this superb "jumble" visible through one of the windows - you can see the second waterwheel and tool shop, plus a water powered bar cutter (front right).
Before you ask the camera is actually level, its just that very little else is!
I don't normally do anything to my pictures, other than resize for RR, but in this case I've turned it B/w because the picture suffered from the typical digitial camera problem of 'purple flare' around the top of the window - I used a Kodak Easyshare LS443 here, and they are very prone to this problem, but it was a handy camera to keep in your pocket for odd moments like this, sadly it packed-in after 18 months (and a mere 4,500 pictures!).

This wonderfully crowded image works really well as a B&W so good thought to convert it an avoid the fringing prob. Very interesting to see the inside of this place...I'd love to see more. Sorry to hear about your camera...but look at it as an opportunity to upgrade...that is what I did! :)

You always have very interesting subjects to photograph,and this one is without exception!I totaly agree with you regarding photos touch up! Photography is an natural art,doing so by retouching, is nothing more than fabrications ! The choice of B&W is an excellent one my friend , B&W still has his place in the world of photography in my books!Everything looks so much more interesting,and very well aged too,like it should looks!Excellent light and p.o.v.Well done my friend!Can't wait to see more!

I have had purple flairs in the past, but they didn't suit me :) Seriously, that happens in some of my church photographs when a window is included. My answer to that is a cloning trick. Save two copies and reduce one to B&W. Where there is purple flare, clone from the B&W and it disappears. I think you have to increase the B&W back to 16.7 million colours for that to work. Yes I remember you do. Just increase the colour depth and leave as greyscale. Follow my first Paint Shop Pro Tip for cloning from one image to another :) In most cases you will not notice that this has been done because of the silhouette effect and you have the advantage of keeping your image in colour. Excellent as usual!!!

I had hoped we might see more of this kind of subject matter in your gallery as it is also represents excellent photography. I am a sucker for rural delapitation that is filled with opposing lines and full of texture. As for camera ballance, I have found that a level fitted to the cameras hot shoe solves any future question and we then can lay blame with the architect or natures elements. With that said, I only ask that we may see more of these photographic subject matters in your gallery. Sorry for repeating this point, but I really want you to know I like this photograph!
