I usually dislike perspective distortion in images (a side effect of working with view cameras for more than fifteen years), but when I was working with Hermitage Castle, it’s massive bulk seemed to call out for something dramatic.

This small church was by the side of the road in Lockerbie, which I passed through on my way through southern Scotland.

This was the last of the ruins I photographed in Scotland, and by far, my favourite of the architectural images I made. A blended exposure, with one for Sweetheart Abbey, and a second, with a much longer shutter speed, for the wind-swept sky behind it, lead to an image that focused as much on mood and ambiance as it does on composition and light.
