weekly rpn's 52 Photo Challenge 2022 - Week 52 SHOWCASE and COMPLETE

[NickD]

The light is really nice, not only does it pick out the towers, but it seems to minimise the fencing too. The composition works well.

LOL, just read Tim's comment and the was where my mind went as well. A nice shot Stan and a very interesting story to go with it.

Thanks, Bill. Actually there is a pink castle not too far from where I live, Craigievar Castle and said to be the inspiration for Walt Disney's Cinderella Castle.

Nice old towers - and yes a Disney vibe there

I've never seen these before Stan. You've framed the towers well and the lighting suits the subject

Thanks, Pete. The low winter sun makes lighting more interesting.

Lovely image, and definitely not the sort of thing id expect to see in Aberdeen...Speaking as an uncultured southerner of course

Thanks, Bill. I can only think of Disney every time I pass those towers from now on.

I did wonder where they were. Colours nicely captured and the towers are standing straight.

They are totally out of place amount the surrounding buildings.

Thanks, Pete. Time to bin those bad jokes.

Don't bin them, store them away for future use. What's the expression? Ah! Yes! Bottle them!!!

Thanks, I thought I had enough puns last week..... but, anyway, masks are still required for most indoor venues/events here in Scotland.

 

[Nod]

Is that an unsharp mask?

No requirement for masks down here but I'm still using them whenever I go into a building.
