The Somerset Levels
« on: June 21, 2016, 01:19:44 pm »

A selection from my walk around Burrow Mump (variously a site of Roman fort, Alfred the Great's fort, a Norman keep, and a subsequent chapel (now in ruins) once belonging to Athelney Abbey (completely destroyed during the reign of Henry VIII & the dissolution of the monasteries).

Grand shots, Bill. You might want to make a print of the last one to show the cows. They seem intensely interested in what you're doing.

Cheers, Russ. Yes, they followed me along the bank. Fortunately there was the canal between us.

The second and third images are beautiful. But the horizon looks a little tilted.

Nice shots of some great looking countryside. I love the one with the cows and have had a similar experience. I only wish their reflections weren't cut off!

Rajan, I think you're right. That said, the straightening tool in Capture One, is a nightmare to use, so that's my excuse.
