The Gate Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

A simple B & W of a gate and steps leading up to a house (Lithgow - Blue Mountains - NSW).

I am not an avid photographer but love B & W and the mood B & W conveys.

This photo was taken with our old Nikon CoolPix 4300.

Hello, Graham -
I love this composition and your use of monochrome. For some reason it seems that the gate posts are not perfectly perpendicular to the horizon, so I did a workshop attempting to correct that. While I was in the photo I did a bit of edge sharpening. I hope you don't mind my working with your great image.

Hello Graham,
I think this is a well seen photo and nice composition. I agree with messenger1 too. There is a tilt and the photo needs a bit more contrast and sharpness.
Anyway it is still a very good capture.
Best wishes.
