Went on a 2 night break to Westport with the family last week. Had very little time for photography
but managed to sneak out for sunrise (which just didnt happen… Grrrrrr) one morning…. Here’s a
few… not sure on Black and white or colour versions……
All 5D2, Lee filters and various lens. Very surprised I haven’t seen more from over there… very beautiful
landscape with plenty of stunning locations.Richie
Lovely shots – I see what you mean about trying to decide between b&w and colour. I can’t decide either!
I like them too – but unlike dar_d I prefer the colour version of the boats.
I like the B&W version of the first shot.
I love that first one. for me the b+w is better in that one.
i think the boats work better in colour.Very nice, I think the church steeple in the trees would look stunning in the
autumn just as the leaves are turning. I like the first B&W and Colour for
the boat, they are all beautifully sharp.First shot is beautiful. Definitely B&W for that one. Colour works best with the boat IMO. Lovely set.
Hard to decide Richie, but they are lovely shots. I particularly like #2
Excellent,Pat
I prefer the monochrome versions. for me they seem to emphasise the textures and are easier on the eye than the colour versions.
Composition looks good too. JohnFor me, the B&W 2 stand out….. good work. I was there earlier in the year and had a similar sunrise non-event…. managed to miss the sunsets too.
Great set of shots, my vote is for the B&W on the first shot and the colour on the second.
My thoughts
The lack of good light on the first just makes it look more interesting in the B&W.
The Abbey looks abit bright (too much dodge ?) on the B&W on the second shot, but the colour just looks fantastic.
Well helloooo…
Didnt expect all these comments to be honest. I think i agree with what most said. For probably
the first time while I was taking the first shot I envisaged it in mono. Very rare for me I tell ye
as its normally just trial and error when converting the RAW files…! The Kylemore Abbey one looks
good when bigger in mono as I did a gaussian blur dreamy effect to it in PS but I agree its
probably suited to colour. I have other versions with sky in them but its bland and just white so
I recomposed and shot without it.
Jenny… yes that place in Autumn would be stunning. I am so surprised that I haven’t seen a shot
of it before. Its an amazing scene..!Thanks again…. comments very much appreciated…!

Nice set ritchie, i dont think the weather was doing you any favours.
I like the mono for #1 and colour for #2 although the scene in #2
is a bit busy for me, I think its the bench inthe foreground.the last one is really nice too, nice composition but could be a bit
darker in the centre IMOA
I find these shots quite powerful Richie … and I am going through a bit of a b&w phase at the moment, so I definitely think all of the shots work better in mono…
the first, in particular, is grand indeed…
