Cropping

Over on Brian's Culture Blog there is a post entitled "The joy of cropping". This has inspired me to play around with some of the photographs I took a couple of weeks ago when I was test driving my new Canon A80 on a trip to Ayrshire.

The first photo is of the Isle of Arran taken from the seafront at Prestwick. The sky has been cropped.

Here is another shot with the sky cropped, this one showing the village of Mauchline with Arran about 30 miles in the distance. You can tell from the shadow pattern on Arran that this photo was taken a few hours earlier than the one above.

The third photograph is of the Wallace Tower in Ayr High Street.
