During a walk in Hillsborough Park today I took this...
(1/60sec, f/11, focal length - 31mm, ISO - 100, 17/02/08)
I quite like it. I still feel it's falling far short of 'artistic' photography, but the structure is getting better... maybe.
If I had to do it again, I'd try to get more 'umph' into the sky - maybe Photoshop or Gimp can help there, maybe I should have tried to get the same sky on a different exposure (but I was shooting freehand).
I did manage to clone out the two old biddies on the path (no prizes for finding where they used to stand).
The park itself is lovely. Those of you who expressed interest in another trip out with cameras, I'll be in touch. I reckon a morning spent in the park with lunch at The Plough might just be what the doctor ordered.
