Llyn Gwynant I - Snowdonia, Wales

It's been too long folks...

What can i say, it's been pretty hectic round here in the last month. I've been moving house and consequently had a couple of weeks without internet access. This last weekend was the first real weekend off, so Jess and I took a trip to the beautifully tranquil Lyn Gwynant in Snowdonia, Wales.

The above image started out as long exposure infra-red shot (no really...) combined with a 3 exposure hdr composite.

    Wow -- it really is a dreamscape. I like the muted colors at the top; the colors at the bottom might be a little rich for me. Great work.

    Splendid result. Just my way...
    Without the birds it would be even better (at least for me).
    Best wishes, Frank
