Other Jodrell Bank

I popped along to see the Jodrell Bank telescopes recently. The site was closed but I managed to grab these shots from the surrounding road.

Hope you like them

OK. I think I've done that now. Thanks for the advice

Love the dramatic B&W, top shot for me. Assuming you added the noise for effect?

I'm not sure I can take the credit for the noise. I hadn't intended on taking any "decent" photographs on the day. Topped off with very bad light, being a long way away and not actually getting out of my car I just wanted something for myself to look back on.

Team that up with the post processing being the first time I had used Photoshop in way to many years I'm just happy I got something rather than nothing!

All that being said I'm not disappointed with the results.

I like them, if anything the noise adds to the feel. Although I'm surprised at the amount for that ISO, the sensor in that camera is very capable in low light.

The original RAW images were very smooth and flat and showed little detail on the structure of the dish. So I pushed the detail extraction quite hard.

The results were nice detail in the dish and structure in the sky but way over done for noise.

If I re-do the post work I'll work on the dish and sky separately and blend them back together.

Good on you Deb! Must feel good to have a camera back in your hands.
