Redirect to original
Description
Sorry, had to resubmit this one, DA wasnt playing fair, and refused to accept my file!Firsty: This might be in the wrong section, there was some serious colour tweeking in this one, the orignal looked rather bland,
Spot the differance - [link]
Secondly: I am quite happy with way this turn out, because the morning I went to shot these, my lens decided to refuse to autofocus, so everything was a manual job, and having never really done much before, think this turned out pretty well. (I have a new lens on its way)
Thirdly: hmmm, Yeah. tell me what you think, maybe you prefer the orignal, maybe you think there both crap, either way i'd like to know.
Taken with 400D, and Cokin P121 filter
Thanks for looking.
***EDIT***
After ~Monochr0m comfirmed what I thought myself, I decided that I would remove the tree on the left.
You can see the original in my scraps, original colours and tree.

This is definitely an improvement on the original, please tell me your secret secret colour-modifying processes!
That's one of the things that discourages me from trying my hand at photography as an art form... shots always turn out fairly dreary. Need an injection of vibrant colours.
Anywho, lovely photo, lovely gallery.

Thank you for great words!
The secret into the colour inprovement is all down to colour balances and layer masks.
If you want i could explian a little better on a MSN sometime, really quite simple.
Thanks for the fav.

Yeah it looks better without that tree. And how old is the castle?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well.....
Its a replica of a castle that was in a city near by, but it got destroyed in a war.. the original one was made in 1235, but this on was made to remember it in 1912, it never got finished, but still looks kinda cool.

That's a pity that the original one was destroyed. Old castles are amazing. I truly hate maths & physics and my favourite subject is history, I suppose. And I was always interested in those stories and legends about castles. Is there any interesting story about this one?

I was never a fan of history.. i dont know a great deal of info on this castle really.
There is some info on the orignal one here [link]
Here is a shot of its replica in my town [link]
