abbey ruins

I took this photo a few weeks ago and have only just got around to doing some PP on it......it is on private land so could not get any closer

Hey Marky,

Great composition... I love the reflection and silhouette of the large tree. The abbey gives it an old world charm.
I like the branches in the top left corner, they help frame and bring your eye back down to the abbey (the subject) as you explore the image.

Nice work!

P.S. Are you able to straighten the image, it seems to run down to the left very slightly.

Great image Mark! I agree with J-man regarding slight straightening. Other than that, it's perfect!

BTW, If I may ask, a bit reduced size (width/height) would be better Not because of file size or site bandwidth. But for the best viewing experience and optimal speed of loading. I think the ideal size for online (vertically oriented) photos is around 768x1024. Just an idea for next time.

thanks for your great comments guys....I'm glad you like, i took this pic a few weeks ago and did'nt like it and was going to delete it....for some reason i kept it and then i played with it a bit more...as for the straightening...im not sure if Xnview has this...i have not read the "manual" and Pavel sizes have been noted again...thanks...M

Hi Mark. Try menu Image > Rotate > Custom and in menu View >> Show Grid enabled grid. This will help you with straightening the images. No problem about size! Just an idea to make the viewing more pleasant and fast.
