Walsingham's House

These are the remains of Scadbury Hall, a substantial Tudor-era manorhouse which was for a long period in the ownership of the Walsingham family. Sir Francis Walsingham, known as the spymaster to Queen Elizabeth I, was born here in 1532.

On a technical note, I recently upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Lightroom, and I have to say I'm struggling to get the right colour balance in the same way as I used to with the older version (L6). To me the green here looks odd, in spite of endless fiddling with hue, luminance and saturation. Any tips gratefully received.

Love seeing the footprint of previous homes and civilisations. Always so interesting. Hope you get some help on AL. I've never used it, but many do.

It must have been an impressive building in its day.

Can't help you with your Lightroom problems, I use Photoshop.

I am sure there are lots of tutorials on YouTube though.

Those ruins are impressive!

Beautiful ruins. Do you have a calibrated screen? If not, don't touch the color balance sliders. There are two tones of green here. In the sun and in the shade. They both fell apart. I don't adjust the colors at LR. I prefer to use a gray card. And when one of the colors screams at, I reduce the vibrance.

@haskar That's helpful, thank you.

So historic and I like the reflections (from the moat or pond?)

[Peter H]

@fr1da Frida, it's a moat. Amazing.!

[Fr1da]

@peadar Im glad its a moat. It looks like a moat and adds more knowledge to this ancient place. You have taken the shot with a good position in mind. Love the colours defining the spaces.
