Nestle, As Was


I took this photograph of the River Avon at Chippenham, Wiltshire, with the old Nestles factory on the opposite bank, during October, 2015. I used a Canon EOS 40D with a Soligor C/D Wide-Auto f/2.8 28mm M42 lens on an adapter.
When you use vintage optics you have to be prepared to do a bit of post-processing, most particulalrly by adding contrast. But perversely I have reduced contrast for this second version, and increased exposure here and there. I quite like the composition, yet I feel the elements within it are vying for prominence. Nevertheless, I like drawing an imaginary diagonal from the life belt to the red door.
