Conduit Court, Skipton Castle[edit]

Image of perhaps the most striking part of Skipton Castle, Conduit Court, with sun coming through the branches of the famous yew tree - this is a very busy area and therefore it's quite unusual to have a picture free from tourists! Taken myself and released into the public domain - one of the of the first photos I've uploaded so, to be honset, I'm more interested in general thoughts, whether resolution is considered high enough etc. rather than expecting someone to nominate for a featured article.

Nominate and support. - Cavie78 10:49, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comments:

Pointers, as requested; the "blown out" sky is fairly distracting. When architectural features are vertical (like most walls) they should also be vertical in an image. This isn't as easy as it sounds, and this image is tilted. On the edges of the tree branches, you've also got some purple fringing. Essentially, I think this image needs to be taken at a different time of day. Enuja 15:00, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the comments - none of the castle walls are straight so that, at least, isn't my fault! Cavie78 22:07, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The vertical walls appear to be a fairly consistent angle off verticle, and it's about 15 degrees. Even if the walls are leaning somewhat, they aren't leaning that much. Enuja 20:17, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
