A gloomy afternoon

One of the fun things about scanning your own films is that - there are no rules anymore. In fact most of the self imposed 'rules' I had for film photography have vanished since I started scanning my own films... I didn't realise I had so many ha! These photos were actually taken with colour film - but it was so gloomy at this point of the day that the colours washed out and looked a bit - well - rubbish. I knew there were some good photos here though - and as scanning and editing is now all about finding those hidden gems in the results I get - I was determined to find the ones in these.

Drop the saturation - adjust the contrast a little - and boom. Here we are. One gloomy afternoon walking around the lake at Kiplin Hall in Richmond.

Cranes

The bird kind... not the mechanical kind. One of the main attractions in Pensthorpe Natural Park was the preservation of endangered crane species. I can't think of many times that I've seen cranes, so I found them fascinating to watch - it looks like their knees bend backwards but apparently, thats their ankle and they actually have really long feet?! Crazy! Either way - fascinating!!
