Spooky Tree Tewkesbury Abbey
Photographers Comments
Heavily edited in Lightroom to give a spooky effect, like opinion on whether it works or not. Used a solarizing effect by reversing the tone curve then desaturated it to remove the distracting colours. added thumbnail to see original shot

Thanks for the tip Dennis. I work from home and mainly get out and about only as a result of my job as a trainer. I must make more of an effort to visit some of the interesting places I pass through and will give Tewkesbury a visit

The lighting effect in this works very well. It does have a ghostly look. An unusual take on the ordinary. Would look great on Dracula's lounge wall (what a compliment!)
