About Me
- Linda aka Elemobe
- One evening in August 2006, I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Elements, loved it and for the next 3 months, was totally absorbed learning how to use such fun software . I quickly realised that whilst editing can do a lot for not so good photos (polite term for "crap")it was actually better to be creative with good images - and so my love of photography was re-ignited. This Blog is part of my creative journey. I have a lot to learn but the motivation of getting out there to tick off the themes gives me good practice. Please look through and feel free to comment, which I welcome and appreciate. Thanks for stopping by.

That's lovely. Somehow the ruin has a soft quality to it which I like. You've managed to keep good detail in the sky and the ruins and the trees. And I like how you've got a little bit of the river at the bottom to anchor the scene. Really well done...
I'm not sure about these two images. The first is too warm for my tastes, the second too cool.
Paradoxically, had you only posted one of these images, either one, I'm sure would have liked it just fine.
But something is making me wish for the 'goldilocks' image, the one that's just right.
I find situations such as this great fun and enjoy trying out different processings on my own images. Tweaking them until I get it just 'right' for me. The fun is in seeing the image 'come to life' on my computer screen. Of course, YMMV.
As to the castle itself, is the Lady actually in residence? That is, is part of the castle actually used as living space. If so that is very cool.
Mevets, I completely agree with you. These castle shots are just not quite there. They were fun to play with though and have given me inspiration to go back and do the job properly. The castle is local to me, so plenty of opportunity.
And yes, she still lives there! A true artistocrat. The arial views are fascinating (see links on post) and to be honest, had it not been for the blog I wouldn't have gone searching for them and seen what the "other side" looks like.
