March 1st - Crooked


A crooked little hut at Cattle Creek, built in one day by timber cutters 99 years ago with saplings and cast-off sheets of corrugated iron from other constructions. They used this hut and others nearby as shelter when they were in the forest working for weeks at a time. I thought that this image needed B&W as a small tribute to its heritage...

  1. B&W works nicely for this--it lest the textures take center stage.

  2. B&W really works for this image...but if I may, it could do with being a bit punchier.

    1. Hmmm, I thought you might say that ;) I will take it back to PS and see what I can do...

  3. Perfect processing...but maybe lighten the shadows a bit. Great textures too!

    1. Thanks :) the shadows are better in the bigger image, can see the inside detail just a little, but I obviously need to do some more work on this to make it better...

  4. Black and white is perfect for the shack.

  5. Guess there wasn't loads of time for them to plane the timbers. I very much like the b&w!

  7. Perfect indeed for b&w. Looks like it was in dappled sun/shade which I find we see better in than our cameras.
