Astbury Church 4

pretty nice B&W with effective angle of shot

senn right its great

It's a great building Jim & this is an imposing view of it.
However their are some processing issues. The tones at the bottom (& in the tree & the bush) look a bit ugly as if it is over processed. There are halos due to over processing or over sharpening around the building.
Regards,
Ian.

Nice composition and angle of view. I have to agree with Ian. I hate to say but it's over processing a bit. The halo is viewable on the right side of the tower too and the vignetting is too much for my taste.

Thanks for your comments chaps. I'm not sure what a halo is , my PP knowlege is quite limited, so if either Ian or Gabor could explain I'm happy to learn.

If you overdo the usage of 'Clarity' in Photoshop/Lightroom or 'Definition' in Aperture you will got a brighter contour around the sharp edges. It is viewable on the left side of the tower. In some cases you can get same result with overdid sharpening too.

Thanks Gabor, that clears it up for me, though I must say I find it hard to see on my monitor. I guess the processing is a matter of personal taste, though it is always good to have other opinions.
