Cavendish house photoshoot 1

When i got to abbey park and saw Cavendish house i felt very calm and relaxed and it seemed easy to take photos. the natural lighting was pretty good, it was that sort of 'ice cold yet a cold sun' look and this was before the snow so the images are all very autuminal. The colours i like as the reds and browns reflect the idea that there was a fire there, and the lighting on some of the images is very interesting, with the light coming from the trees and casting random patterns. Some of the images are sihouetted, and i like this, and some of these would look just as good in black and white, but these images are far more atmopsheric then the images ive taken so far.  The idea that the house and ruins are in the middle of a popular is very interesting and shows a mixture of the past and present. And the change between past and present is what i wanted to look at in locations as well as capturing the atmosphere of the place. its very post card perfect and i like this cos it contradicts with the idea that during the civil war the house that stood grand on the grounds was burnt so badly to the ground, only 2 and abit walls remain all that was left. 
What i also like about alot of these images stick to the photographic rule of thirds. for example the bottom three of the examples below do and i really like the framing of these images. it would be interesting to photograph these images in my pinhole or film camera, so another visit will be in order to reshoot some of these images
