The Photography Thread

I played with it a little, increasing the contrast to get the headland silhouette but the sky and cloud formations were pretty spectacular yesterday, though I always forget how quickly the light vanishes this time of year. One minute there, then it's gone.

Took my mtb out today for a couple of hours, very pleasant bit of XC pootling it was too!

Here's a nice poem I found:

And some trees:

Just a week old and we have our own boats already.

I don't know, sorry. Just spotted them in a Dutch canal last summer, and can't recall what the adults looked like.

This is my personal favourite, taken with my humble mobile phone. Wasdale in the Lake District

Is it just me that looked at that archway and felt the need to duck, lest I rip my jacket?

I've got a Wadale one from the same spot by the looks of things

It's a scanned slide that one.

What is it that you like about it?

The reflection in the water and the light and shade which give the mountains a fabulous look

Crop out the bottom left corner object perhaps?

Yeah... I like the white and dark contrast between the foothills and the area above the snowline.

Would make a good black n white image?

Possibly; the higher quality picture looks a little darker in the two bottom corners giving a more vignette effect. For that reason and it being an odder shape if cropped, I left it. It's personal. A picture for my gratification, a remembrance of a great day in the hills but I take your point.
