The Pump House (again)

Flash of Red February 2019

I seem to go back again and again to the pump house at the country park. I thought the bright colours would convert well to B&W and give me some contrast.

I have adjusted the colour version but I am leaving the B&W image as I don't want to loose any comments.

Best on black

Many thanks for your great comments on my images - so very much appreciated!!

[Joan Robillard]

I love the tonal contrast of this shot.

[Issi Bannerman]

Beautiful scene and really suits black and white.

[Sheralee S]

That's a beautiful old building. I also like the gulls on the railings.

[Henri Russell]

It a beautiful subject for your contrast photo.

[Karly]

Isn't it great to have those "go to" places where you know you can get a good shot? Seasonal changes also make it fun. What a wonderful old pump house. Love the brick and the shape of the building. Great image! Yes, on black.

[Lou Ann]

[FBailey]

[Carole G]

Works very well in b&w

[Babs]

What a great building. The contrast between the pump house and the birds works really well

[sarah]

Definitely great contrast- I see why you like going back here - great viewed on black

[Milanie]

And neat reflections, too.

[Marnie]

I can well see why you're drawn back there Pam, it's an interesting building.

[KWind]

An interesting structure! Great image.

[Jane Pittenger]

Like the seagulls hanging out too. Is it my eye or is it a bit tilted?

[Ron]

Very cool in B&W - and on black for sure.

[Casablanca]

Seagulls forming a guard of honour there!

@jgpittenger I think it's a wee bit down on the right too.

[Pam Knowler]

@jgpittenger @casablanca Thank you ladies I agree the pump house looks as if it's leaning. Please see the colour version I have uploaded with the building straightened with the lake now going uphill from left to right. Whatever I do to the image something is wrong!! Perhaps it's the wide angle of the iPhone ?

Good capture
