i want to try HDR... its an art into itself. I love the dramatic effects of the clouds and yet the subtle capture of green moss on rocks. lovely picture.

Lovely Shot
BoblyP (57 months ago | reply)
Yes, but Steve - you take beautifully clear photos with great warmth to them. I could do much better than this with a better camera...... I'm limited by the ability of my current camera to deal with clarity and truly sharp images.

Great shot! Looks like an amazing place to explore with a camera!
BoblyP (57 months ago | reply)
Thanks - hawkeye_flickr this is in the Lake District, UK which is a National Park. It's one of the most beautiful places on Earth. You can walk up mountains in a matter of a couple of hours and be up there surrounded by fantastic views over the tops of a large mountain range (if the weather's good). It's so worth visiting and then taking some photos.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called British National Parks, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group.
This maybe a slightly over done HDR by normal standards, but it so works in this shot. I love it!

A lovelly use of HDR to exentuate the textures
BoblyP (57 months ago | reply)
Thanks again - brosif, you're so right, it is an awesome view - and so fantastic to be ridge walking amongst the mountain peaks!
nolarae - thank you. I start out with a view and want to record it. Then I realise, I actually want to enhance it! So I set my camera to do 3 shots/second with different exposures with almost everything I photograph. It's like an obsession, as if the natural photo isn't enough. Ah well, I'm a bit pissed tonight so am rambling. Nevertheless, I'm grateful for comments. I do like the foreground textures here (although it's a deliberately fairly extreme use of HDR) but I do long for a better camera with more pixels and better image quality. Molto grazie.

o o o o o o fantastic sky, you are very lucky to be there... i hope you are staying in a tent, the only way to enjoy the lakes
BoblyP (57 months ago | reply)
Pete, I'm flattered. No, I'll walk up any mountain you put in front of me but I need an en-suite when I'm done!

Very dramatic light on the foreground. I can remember only one clear exemple in landscape painting (still an important source for photographers): Ruysdael's View on haarlem
www.erasmuspc.com/images/content/jacob van ruisdael - zicht op haarlem (view of haarlem).jpg
Anyway, a well executed and beautiful shot!
(thanks forn the invite too, quality group!)
