About the Image(s)
Our Lady of the Braes church at Polnish is set on a hilltop in the Highlands of Scotland overlooking Loch Ailort and was built in 1872. It is no longer in use and in 2023 was sold for conversion into a home.
A lucky capture during a visit in November 2006 in that the weather was typically Scottish and the sun appeared for only a few seconds, lighting up the church with just enough time to fire off a couple of shots.
Captured on a Canon EOS 5D fitted with the 24-105mm f4 IS lens set at 67mm, 1/5 sec at f11, ISO 100, hand held with IS. Initially processed in colour in CS 6 and converted to monochrome in SEP 2 and further processed following my normal workflow. Finessed in Topaz DeNoise AI and sharpened using the High Pass filter in Soft Light mode and sharpening halos removed where necessary.
