Beware The Mechanic
Since visiting the water tower located at Lovesome Hill for a recent shoot, I've discovered that it actually features in a track by Rebekah Findlay: a singer songwriter based in North Yorkshire.
The song, not surprisinly, is entitled "Lovesome Hill" and appears on her second album "Improvising Around The Sun".
It's a rather sinister tale, which apparently takes its inspiration from a rumour that a murderer did actually live at Lovesome Hill for many years before being caught.
I don't know how true this is, but he was apparently known as 'The Mechanic' and it's also claimed his ghost can often be seen stood by or even atop the tower.
Not sure I'll go back up there again!
Now, if I've not scared you off with that tale and you want to know more ...
This creation was produced for The Sunday Challenge and published on 26 October to try and satisfy the theme of Spooky/Halloween.

Apparently, when Rebekah was recording her first album she would pass this place every time on the way to the studio. The actual song "Lovesome Hill" was written behind the steering wheel developing over a few months of journeys back and forth.

The main image of the tower as seen in the shot was taken by me. However, I deleted the grey sky, which surrounded it that day as I wanted something a little more dramatic. I also flipped the tower horizontally and repositioned it somewhat to give me a little more space above.
Here's the original image pretty much as it came out the camera. The only changes being that I've resized it and added my watermark and a fine line border.

The lightning background I've used to gve the scene a sense of drama was taken by Mathias Krumbholz. Entitled "Thunderstorm near Pritzerbe (Germany)" it needs to be attributed as:

Finally, the rain texture was developed by me from an image I found online entitled "misc rain element png by dbszabo1". Check it out here ...
dbszabo1.deviantart.com/art/misc-rain-element-png-309954950
I took his original work and produced a new image using several copies of it merged together, but smaller in size and with another layer produced going in the other direction to give the effect of a blustery night.
And there you go, that's how it was done. What's that you say, what about 'The Mechanic' ... well all I can say is he wasn't on the shot when I uploaded it!
