Went back to the watermill in Paisley yesterday, a location I've shot before, and got a few good 'uns. These are the ones that didn't quite make it onto my project. Both are shot at f/16.0 ISO 100 @ 10mm and are HDR.

both shots are REALLY nice. great location, you need to shoot that site many more times, different skys and different lighting/sun

good work. good composition. building perspective and angles done correctly.

Thanks very much. Yeah, it is a fantastic location. By my calculations, the sun rises directly behind the building itself so I aim to get down there for a sunrise sometime soon.

Thanks, yeah the HDR does that sometimes. I normally try not to overdo it and make it a bit more realistic but I think the over processed approach worked with these shots so I went with it.

Haha! Nah, you're probably right actually. :D

Thanks. That was actually a puddle no more than a foot across, shot with the front of my wide angle lens basically sitting in the puddle. :D

Thanks man. I can understand that, they're not to everyone's taste. And like I said earlier, I usually try not to over process them but it seemed to fit these ones without looking ridiculous like they sometimes can.

These are brilliant, you've done a cracking job on number 2 especially. I'm also very impressed by your 365, I've bookmarked it and will be checking in regularly!

Thanks very much! The project has certainly been a challenge this year, but it's been good fun. Well worth doing.
