Dog walker in the valley

[Aggy]

Went out the other day to try and shoot some landscapes, as my landscape skills leave a lot to be desired.

Came back home and this shot, which was a quick snap, really caught my eye, didnt think anything of it when I took it.

I like it. Even more OOF to background would have been nice but it already has the depth needed.

Cheers Pekka, comments much appreciated

Nice one! The dog has a sort of daft expression on his/her face.


Which part of the Uk is this? There seems to be an ever increasing number of UK based people on the forum. :D

The exact location is Happy Valley in Coulsdon, Surrey.

I like it too - the picture leads your eye from the front to back, and captures the moment well. I think you could probably get a more OOF background with some noise reduction or something.
