A photo from my recent trip to the UK. I was out exploring the Northumbrian countryside with my son and my X100F, and came across this castle… It was a good day.
A castle discovered while exploring Northumberland with my son and the X100F — the kind of find that justifies driving without a plan. Monochrome suits castle photography naturally: grey stone, geometric form, and sky are a tonal study without needing any conversion. The fixed focal length forces you to work for your composition rather than relying on zoom. See the UK Chronicles Part IV: Alnwick to Rothbury on IJM Photography.

Fantastic image Ian 👍🏻

I was certainly happy with it. On my blog there’s a whole series of the UK Chronicles showing images from that trip…
