Last week on Wednesday we sailed into Norway. It was mainly cloudy in the early morning but the sun managed to punch through now and then.

Armadale Castle
It was a rainy day on our visit to Armadale Castle, and we had limited time, so my framing wasn’t quite perfect, but I loved the look of spaces within spaces in the ruins of the castle. Oh to have 20 minutes and a tripod!

Picture Window
Continuing with the digital (How I wish I could develop my film!!), I loved the picture window feeling I got in Armadale Castle, Scotland, in one of the outer buildings
Trying a Different Path
I wasn’t able to do any conventional infrared photography on our trip to Scotland, but I decided to try some post-processing with Lightroom and Nik Efex for a similar look. Today’s image is from the Ring of Brodgar stone circle on the Isle of Orkney. Amazing stones, older than Stonehenge!

The Shores of Scotland
(It’s going to be digital for a while, until I can stand up in my darkroom again) The weather in Scotland was a constant swirl of sun, cloud and rain, normally at the same time 🙂

Looking at the Future
(Scheduled post while I’m away).
Recently I was done by the lake and saw this young couple: as they looked out upon the calm waters, I wondered if they were looking at a future together.

The Don River
This past weekend on another gloriously sunny day I went out to do some more infrared shooting; I am definitely binging!
