Try GIMP, it is free, I believe. Not used it myself but many swear by it.

Amazing church. I am always taken aback when I see photographs of it. Lovely shots, all three, but I think I prefer the second one as the light gives it a little more contrast and interest than the first, although I like the composition of the first. Let's be honest, I cannot make my mind up but I like them all anyway!

Cheers, Kris.

Enjoy Lynton, it is a nice lens. This was taken with my one.

Hi Jack,

It is a nice shot but I find your BW one a little flat so I downloaded your colour version and had a go at a BW conversion myself. I made the sky much darker and upped the contrast a little with a small amount of curves adjustment. IMHO the image then has more "punch" (whatever that means). I can post it if you are interested. The only problem is that the lo-res colour image has some problems with banding in the sky.

I am sure our resident BW experts (Malo, where are you? ) would do better.

Best wishes, Kris.

I'm going to be the odd one out and say I love the first one, but the third comes in a close second. No. 2 is less interesting as a photo but fascinating from a geological point of view.

Great stuff.

With No. 7 I'd try to correct the perspective in PP. I, personally, dislike converging verticals unless done for very dramatic effect as in No 5.

Best wishes, Kris.

My better half is making a collection of photos of Kris taking photos. The wild flower shots (me taking them that is) are proving popular as I am usually on the ground in an awkward position...

Love the umbrella shot, BTW.

Did someone say Horseman?

Well said Ben, by the way.

As does "Outdoor Photography" magazine. And doesn't Daniel Bridge run some too?
