365/82: 12 May 2010: And another night at Daresbury

There’s a rather pretty church at Stretton, less than a hundred yards from the hotel which I’d never visited before. Light was excellent – low sun through broken dark clouds – just loved the way it was playing on the leaves in this scene in the churchyard.

365 Challenge – Day 22 – 13 March 2010 – A stab at black and white

A typical Saturday – spent the morning chasing around Carlisle, then decorating in the afternoon. The cloudy sky gave some particularly interesting light around sunset very golden colour, particularly on the trees across the road so I dashed out and popped of a couple of shots before it faded. Good job I moved quickly as it was gone in less than five minutes. Just for a change thought I’d have a go at a black and white conversion. Here’s the end result – I'm quite pleased with it.

A few more (colour) shots from this series can be found on the Around Cumbria page of my website.
