Day 155 of 365 - The Lunt Roman Fort!

Welcome to day 155 of 365 (Finished image after Editing)

The original photo was taken this morning in Baginton, a village on the outskirts of Coventry. The image is of Lunt Roman Fort. The site is a rebuilt Roman fort that would have originally been in use nearly 2000 years ago. The main part of the image is of the reconstructed Gatehouse. While next to it on the left side is the gyrus which may have been used as the cavalry training arena. The site was rediscovered and reconstructed upon the original foundations during the 1960's and 1970's.

The site is classed as a Scheduled Ancient Monument. It is number 7 on my list of 10 Scheduled Ancient Monument's in the Coventry area that I hope to photograph.

As always the shot was taken with my iPhone 5. The photo was taken using the camera App Cortex Camera for iPhone. The original image can be found here: Unedited original Image.

First of all I used the app ShockMyPic to edit the image making some of the details a bit more artistic. After that I used an app called LensFlare to apply lighting to the image. Finally I used Distressed FX to add extra texture to the image using the Egret overlay and the Sentiment Texture.
