Bible, Inglesham church Photographically, last week was a huge success.? I had several days where I was able to get out and about and take pictures.? For a change, I managed get quite a few keepers, so will be busy processing images when time and inclination allow... Last Monday I visited St John The Baptist Church in the village of Inglesham.? The church is no longer used for worship but is still consecrated.? I spent a very peaceful, happy three hours there looking for things to photograph. To this week's PAW.? It was taken with an M8 and 50mm Summicron lens. Exposure was 1/2 sec and I used a tripod - which I know is anathema to many!? I metered the scene with a hand-held meter, taking a incident reading.? It's post-processed in Photoshop CS2, and I've used the Alien Skin? plugin to replicate HP5 plus and a war/selenium tone effect. Other? than a slight modification to curves and contrast, it's pretty much as-is. http://www.monomagic.co.uk/gallery.php?gallery=paw/2009&image=2009-week32-1.jpg I hope you like it. For me, it just sums up the solitude and tranquility I felt when I visited this place.? I will be returning...
