[ d u n g c a r t d o t c o m ]A place for the stuff that leaks out of my head

Tattershall Castle in Lincolnshire, or at least what’s left of it – the keep and the moat basically. A bit of an experiment – I generally avoid shooting into the sun. Blown highlights are a pet peeve but I can just about live with it on this occasion.

Lifebelt amongst the dunes at the beach near Dunstanburgh. The sun was setting which gave the clouds a nice warm pink colour against the blue sky. After much deliberation I posted the black and wite version rather than the colour – it just had that indefinable something extra.

Shot from the expansive beach at Mablethorpe in Lincolnshire. The Lynn and Inner Dowsing offshore windfarm at Skegness can be seen on the horizon.

Derelict sheds on “Dead Bod* Jetty” off the former quayside of Vitcoria Dock in Hull, East Yorkshire.

* Bod = bird (Hull dialect)

The view was irresistable with camera in hand.

Druid’s Writing Desk from duncmc via flickr.

One of my favourites from a recent series at Brimham Rocks. The flat grey skies had begun to clear and bit of blue was showing, but still with plenty of cloud to give the sky some mood. The rock formations lead the eye into the focal point which is a rock known as the Druid’s Writing Desk. Although it is one of the most recognisable rock formations here, it is not as widely photographed as many of the others.

It’s the view that everyone takes of this lonely tree clinging onto a rocky outcrop at Brimham Rocks. The converging perspective of the ultra-wide angle lens really works the rock strata for full effect.

I had high hopes for our trip to Brimham Rocks on Sunday, but the dull weather left us with a flat, greay sky for most of the day. A little bit of Photomatix in post really brings out texture detail in the rocks.
