I was really fortunate that there was some great light when I was there. especially in the evening, or really early morning.

more to come soon...

[emma rose]

I thought of the bench shot whilst I was knealing down catching my breath after the trek up this mountain (well hill really i'm being dramatic and lazy)

emma,

Not a great fan of the first.... the composition doesn't grab me and the sky is too washed out.

But I like the second... if you could bring out the patch of sun breaking thru it could be more dramatic but I don't think it needs much doing to it (but then I'm a fan of 'natural' photography and minimal post-processing so what do I know ;))

yeah i definetley agree with the boring washed out sky on the first one.

and yeah, I might try and bring out the sun a bit more.

thanks!

emma,

for kicks, why not try a pano-type crop on the stones and get rid of the sky?? Just a thought!

[emma rose]

hmmmm? could work!

[emma rose]

i'd tried to do some crops on some of my others...e.g.
