Generally, I know what I like, (in my wardrobe), and what I dont.

This though, is....what? Good? Poo? Something else? :o

Was there a lion and a witch in there as well?

[Rufus]

Please leave my mother-in-law out of this! :x

What is it Rufus? It looks like a silhouette/shadow of a castle? What is it cast on though? Intriguing!

[Petographer]

I see what you are trying to accomplish here and I think it doesn't look all that bad. I would like to see it without the shadow too.

[de_axeman]

Nah... this one's not for me. Makes me rub my eyes too much...

[dewy]

That, is very good Roo.

However this, is a pile o' poo

I find this a magical photo. I think you make too light of it.

Thanks folks!

I'm very pleased that you mostly like it!

Here is the original:

[shuttertalk]

Wow... amazing what you've done with it!

[Petographer]

I agree. Excellent job Rufus. I think that I may like it better without the forshadow.

Your retouch has a great eery feel to it. The sun through the mist really works - looks the the aftermath of a battle.

Very nice work! I like the way the tree of the original seems to turn into a part of the building, making it look like a ruin. Haunted, no doubt, by the ghosts of mighty warriors.

[Rufus]

Oh yes. Haunted indeed!


Thanks for the comments folks!!!!

Well, this is the haunt of Guy Fawkes at one time, (briefly), I'm told. The place has a considerable history.
