Nocton Hall

Nikon D4 with Nikkor 24-70mm F2.8



Nocton Hall is an old abandoned manor house not far from Lincoln. Not much remains of the building after a couple of arson attacks several years ago, but deep down in the basement remains this old room which receives very little light. Catch it at just the right time and you can capture the light streaming in through the window hitting this old stone fireplace that is still standing proud in the middle of the room. There is so much fine detail in this image which the D4 has managed to capture that reducing the size to fit the blog page slightly softens it. This Nikon can capture great detail in the shadow areas whilst controlling the highlights and the dynamic range really is superb.
