I found this on local bike trail.
The irony was striking. I printed this when I first learned to lith print so needless to say if wasn't as good as I wanted. I recently came back to it and I am really pleased with it now.

Selenium colour effect to enhance the moonlit effect. The other photo uploaded has no alteration to colour and the 5 minute exposure in moonlight makes it look as though it is daytime-view it to compare to this one.
This image has had no colour adjustments and the light from the moon and the security light from the Manse was enough to illuminate the church in the full spectrum of wavelengths of light and thus give it afull colour 'daytime-like' appearance. I felt this was not atmospheric enough and redone this image in a selenium tone to ehance the moonlit mood. See accompanying image for comparison.
Crichton Church was founded on 26 December 1449 by William Crichton, 1st Lord Crichton, Lord Chancellor of Scotland "Out of thankfullness and gratitude to Almighty God, our Lord Jesus Christ, the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Kentigern and All Saints", with the consent of his son, James of Frendraucht and confirmed on the 29 December by James Kennedy, Bishop of St Andrews. Like many other collegiate churches, Crichton was built for the use of the local lord, and a provost, eight prebendaries, two choir boys and a sacrist were appointed to pray for the souls of the Crichton family. The provost was granted the tiends and tithes of the prebends, the Rectory of Crichton and the Temple lands appertaining to Crichton.
The church was built in a Gothic and Romanesque cruciform style with a large central tower; the nave was used as the place of worship for the poor people. This continued until the Scottish Reformation of 1560 when it was considered unusable.
By 1569 it was being used as the parish kirk (church) and a minister, Adam Johnston, was ordained to lead the service. By the 1580s, major restoration work began, though the nave was said to be ruinous, as it is to this day. In 1641, by an Act of Parliament, Crichton Church was declared to be the parish church for all time. Though there was more restoration and adaptation in 1729 it was considered to have been carried out "badly". More work in the 1820s helped to bring the old church back to life, but it was not until the end of the 19th century that the church was fully restored, by the Edinburgh architects Hardy & Wright. Stained glass windows were installed at this time

Nearly all of these selenium light meter cameras have a dead meter.
Ho humm I found out later the light meter works.
You have to line up the asa dial exactly and give it a tap on selenium cell cameras.
One of my first series of photos that I shot solely for the purpose of making a print series. They were originally shot on a rather nice early Saturday morning drive in August of 2014 through the Cleveland Flats and Industry Valley sections of the city.
The title comes from a specific bend in the Cuyahoga River in the Cleveland Flats that was notorious for a lot of collisions between ships navigating the river through the former industrial hotbed of the city.
