Default 3 for the price of one

On way back from Newcastle paid a quick stop to Brough Castle near Kirkby Stephen and captured a few images as the afternoon sun was setting. Here are 3 versions, normal B&W and an HDR - enjoy

Hi Tim! 3 for the price of 1..a good selling pitch..and i'll definitely take all these images coz each one is superb in its own right..great find on the ruins and nice timing on the sun as it glazed the bricks with its light..i like the sinplivity of the b&w but the color of the HDR just pulls me in..tnx for sharing..

Hi Tim. I've passed this place many times but without my camera. I visit Newcastle quite a lot. Next time I'll stop. I like the original best but all great work my friend. Thank you for the inspiration and for sharing your excellent work.

Dave.

I really like the HDR one -- not just for the HDR which is very nicely done (and not overdone) but for the way the fence really makes the composition, and the fabulous color! Thanks for sharing them all -- I love to see these comparisons.

I think they are all really great...but the fence in the HDR one is awesome. It really completes the photo. Nice work.
