Wrawby Postmill, Lincolnshire

[pelliott1954]

Hi All,

I recently found a Mill in Lincolnshire I didn't know existed, is is a Post Mill whatever that is or was.

Would be interested to hear who thinks B&W suits it better than colour.

what a great find Paul ....

I prefer the B&W over colour and the stand out shot is the 4th one - nice although all nice images

Excellent! Mono for me too with also a vote for No. 4 but 5 comes a close second. :thjumbsup:

Cheers,
John

I prefer the mono versions...especially the 4th image.

Thanks Guys, I also prefer the B&W, I think the subject suits it too.

Dave, in regard to the sky, it is Blown you are right, although I shot at the Sun peeping through deliberately, I used a 2 stop Filter but it didn't come out exactly as I hoping for, I wanted a few more shafts of sunlight. then I moved round a bit to put the Sun behind one of the Sails.

I might go again in the Evening light soon

Re: Wrawby Postmill, Lincolnshire

I bet this could look awesome in the evening light certainly would be worth the effort

Great find, Paul, and definitely one of those places worth going back to and trying different things. For me, compositionally no 4 is by far the strongest, with the added bonus of great clouds. In the slightly harsh lighting conditions, I think the monos work better than the colours, but this might be different at dawn or dusk.

Very nice Paul
I find image #4 the strongest as it sits nicely in the frame.

BW for me too. I'm going to be different and say No 1. I quite like the sun coming through.
