Woburn Abbey by helenhall

Woburn Abbey

I'm doing a spot of 'here is one I prepared earlier' this evening, as the camera didn't come out today. I have done all the catching up I can, so sorry if I missed a few - I resorted, in the end to just offering a few favs to those from a few days ago that particularly caught my attention.

This one is from last weekend when we took a circular walk around Woburn - it was raining at the time. I particularly enjoyed being able to edit the raw file on this. Lots of new tools to learn in bridge, some of which are frustrating me because I haven't looked up how to use them properly. But in this instance, I was able to lighten up the house more effectively than I think I would have achieved in photoshop.
I like this -- the tree is wonderful and the beautiful abbey in the distance.

Fabulous shot. We used to visit Woburn Abbey regularly when we lived at Henlow. We had friends at Flitwick.

You may be somewhat distressed to know that I (and the inimitable Mrs S) have also trodden upon that patch of noble earth...didn't get a shot like this though, love that tree.

Love the composition with the stately home taking a backseat to the magnificent tree.

The slight mistiness and the heavy sky give this a brooding quality

Very nice- it has a painterly quality to it.

A fabulous photo of Woburn Abbey. I was curious about this location after viewing your photo so I checked it out online . . . 24 rooms to explore inside the family home, 28 acres of beautiful gardens, and an extensive deer park. Wow! Definitely an area I would like to visit! :-)

Pretty as a postcard! You have a wonderful talent for beautiful compositions. Good luck to you with your venture into new ways to edit. I'm still using only Lightroom; and try as I may, I'm rarely able to achieve the look I envision. There is, however, always hope! :)

I find this an interesting shot Helen in that house looks kind of small compared to the tree in the foreground which looks so huge. It's a great example of how distance can alter perception. I am glad you are enjoying raw editing, pselements also has the ability to raw edit but I can't get on with it and tend to lighten up certain parts of a picture in Viveza - Nik collection.
