Default B&W, HDR, and an Original shot of Castell Dinas Bran

Been playing around with a few shots I took today of Castell Dinas Bran (Crow Castle if your a local) The proper Welsh way is Castell Dinas Bran. So here is one HDR, a B&W and an original shot. The Castle itself is a ruin on a hill above Llangollen where they hold the International Eisteddfordd ( A world famous Singing Competition). Hope you like them.

Nice shots! I really like the vignetting of the b/w shot! Yet another reason on my list to visit the UK...
Thanks for sharing!

Three variations on a theme and each picture improving on the last, my favourite therefore is the excellent final image, more of a landscape, and you do them so well Dave
