The structure and purpose is basically the same even if the name and end product is different. The first photo shows an oven inside the walls of Carreg Cennen Castle. The second shows two of a set of three linked lime kilns situated outside the main walls of the castle.
This apparently coffin shaped corridor is hewn from the rock on top of which Carreg Cennen Castle stands on the edge of the Brecon Beacons in Carmarthenshire, South Wales. It leads down to a cave that must have provided either a fantastic fridge or an excellent dungeon for the occupants of the past.
And today one of my photos of the castle has been posted as part of the Monochrome Madness series by Leanne Cole Photography 🙂
Carreg Cennen Castle is in the ideal location for a castle if the purpose is to provide a good view over the surrounding countryside.
This is part of the ruined walls of Carreg Cennen Castle in Carmarthenshire, South Wales.
Photographically, less in the frame and a relatively short depth of field has provided a greater range of texture and contrast. The technical elements of this image may be important in helping to produce the photo in the first place, but the enjoyment or interpretation of it is personal to our own individual perception.
One of the final days of a beautiful Summer found us at Carreg Cennen Castle in Carmarthenshire, South Wales. It is a magnificent ruin sitting atop a crag of rock looking over to the Black Mountain on the western edge of the Brecon Beacons.
The first image was taken on my iPhone and the second on my Canon 550D. The first needed some cropping and both needed some light adjustment.
I really liked the green block aspect of this building in Swansea’s SA1 quarter. But I did not like the lamp post in front of it!
When I took the photo this object was irritating, but I thought, “never mind, it’s part of the cityscape“. Looking at the image afterwards in Adobe Lightroom made me decide to spend the time taking the lamp post out. I knew it was going to take a little while to do it well, but I thought it was worth it.
What do you think?
This relatively small suspension bridge in Swansea does not look so small as it sticks out like a spire amongst the buildings around.
