These are the best of the other photographs I took whilst at Raby Castle in County Durham

Raby Castle Pictures

All these pictures were taken on the same day I took the courtyard picture which I posted a few days ago with my Pentax K5. The majority of them were with either a sigma 18-125 standard zoom or my Tamron 10-24mm Super Wide angle.

It was quite a dull and grey day when we arrived at the Castle, having spent the morning at the High Force Waterfall and I thought most of the pictures I took would not be very attractive.  However by the afternoon the sun had broken through the cloud and I got some of the best pictures of our whole trip on that afternoon.

I did a fair amount of post-processing on these pictures but I think the finished results are quite natural looking. Click any of the pictures above to get a better view.
