When we arrived in the highlands of Scotland, we encountered this castle which has been used in several movies and TV shows, Eileen Donan. The castle you see here isn’t the original as it was destroyed in the Jacobite uprising and rebuilt it the early 1900s.
I love this image as a black and white. I think it works very well and I especially like the dark sky. I hope I get another chance to photograph this iconic location again, hopefully at high tide.
A Different Time
I find myself being pulled more and more into the black and white world. I have been going through my catalog and picking out the odd image that may eventually find it’s way into this project. The fun thing about black and white is that it has no connection to reality. Post-processing plays a big role and therefore, you own creativity. I have always said that the taking of the photo is only the beginning of the whole process of photography, the other half being the actual post processing of the photograph.
I really enjoy a moody and dramatic photo. To me, that makes the ultimate photo To me, this image is just about the perfect candidate to become a black and white with it’s basic lack of colour in the first place.
I have recently been obsessed with black and white imagery. This isn’t as simple as just pressing a button and changing the image. It involves a process that allows for much artistic license, it is often referred to as fine art.
I like a good black and white image. The trouble is that not all images work as well as others but I feel that this one works quite well. The use of black and white helps us to look at more, we see the forms, shapes and lines much easier for one thing.
