Landscape B&W 1 by carole_sandford

Landscape B&W 1

Phil & I are usually filled with dread if we are having to photograph a landscape. This is mainly because our county is the flattest in the Uk, it is devoid of some of the main components, like hills or mountains with running streams etc. We need good light & cloudscapes to add interest & elevate a shot from being flat & grey. Hopefully I have achieved that.
Phil has posted a link to a video about Lincolnshire landscapes which is worth a watch, for the first part at least - describes our dilemma perfectly ….
This works so well in black & white with the sky looking more dramatic. Flat is good as you have proved.

With all the drama in the sky , this makes for a lovely b/w scape! So much textures, and tones - well done!

You have done a grand job. I love the silhouettes of the farm buildings and trees on the horizon. I had forgotten just how flat Lincolnshire was.

You've done a great job here by putting something of interest in the foreground and allowing the sky to be filled with all those dramatic clouds. Well done!

Beautiful capture of this landscape. I love the sharpness of the silhouettes. I have a similar situation, so my solution is to look through vacation photos and convert them.

Lots of interest here Carole. Cambridgeshire is also very flat but we do have some nice rural scenes with the rivers and trees creating the interest
