13th Century Church...

Watermans Cottage Old Style...

This picture was taken whilst walking around an Anglesark Reservoir near my home, this is such an iconic building I wanted to try and capture it in a different way;



The technical information of how I took this photograph;
Lens: sigma 18-200 @ 116mm, Aperture: F.6, Shutter Speed 1/40, ISO: 100.

I couldn’t put my aperture as high as I wanted because me camera was hand held so I wanted to keep shutter speed up.

My idea was to create an old style picture, as if it had been taken with old equipment, to get this effect, I used picasa to add a washed out sepia tone to accentuate details and increase your focus on the building and increased the film grain to add and aged effect, after this I used photobucket to added a graduated creamy boarder and played around with the circumference until it looked right.

My inspiration behind this picture was due to my grandad, when he died I inherited his old camera from the war which was a Kodak Junior, which used a No. 1, 120 film, since I have got it I have always wanted to take a picture with it but until I do this I wanted to try and achieve the affect.
