Experimenting with shooting black clothing against a black backdrop.
Doing fine adjustments of rim lighting while doing SPs is a blooming pain, but managed to get something I'm reasonably happy with :-)

Blackness Castle Historic Scotland Site On the Banks Of the River Forth
Built in the 15th century by one of Scotland's most powerful families, the Crichtons, Blackness was never destined as a peaceful lordly residence, its enduring roles were those of garrison fortress and state prison.
In the 16th century, the castle's defences were strengthened to make it one of the country's most formidable artillery fortifications. Besieged and damaged in 1650 by Cromwell's army, it was used, after its restoration, to incarcerate Covenanters.
After the 1707 Treaty of Union, Blackness ceased to be a state prison and became a minor garrison. During the wars with France between 1759 and 1815 it held prisoners of war, then in 1870 was converted to an ammunition depot. Finally in the 1920s, the castle was conserved as an ancient monument.

You know it's a slow picture day out trying to find things to photo when you find yourself eating with an old Crow on a park bench. Thank you old Crow. You made my day even if it was just your picture that was worth keeping. "OLD TIMER" Bird/Crow.

ODC Horizon
This being Black Friday in the USA, how could I not do a B&W submission for today's challenge. Now I am surrounded by tall trees so I had to get a bit creative here, and this is what might be termed an Artificial Horizon. Artificial because it is the top of our roof as seen from our guest bedroom. So it is an horizon, but not in the typical sense.
Hope you like it!
