I decided not to walk down into the garden area with Sue, Jane and Ann and stayed up at the castle. I had my Holga Fun Lens with me and decided to have another play with it. The Holga is a cheap 'Lo-fi' simple meniscus plastic lens which gives severe vignetting, soft focus, blur, light leaks and low contrast. It is designed for DSLRs to mimic the old Holga medium format cameras. This is not the first post I have done with this lens. I decided now that you cannot really crop the images once they are taken as the vignetting 'looks wrong. I have played with the colouration by split toning in Adobe Lightroom on a few images.

Day 3 Shropshire - Powis Castle, Welshpool, Wales
Looking back at the blogs from our Shropshire Holiday with Jane and Ann I should have called it Wales not Shropshire as most of the places we visited are in Wales. So, Day 3 we visited another National Trust Site, Powis Castle.
