Very hazy today so it was kinda a lost cause, but I did get this, so thought I'd share. It's nothing special, but just makes me smile as it's been sunny today.  Cheers, Dave.

The only thing is the sky is blown out and a GND would have helped balance the exposure better. You can do a quick adjustment in curves to bring down the highlights and a gradient filter in PS to help balance the exposure. You don't have IMAGE EDITING on, and I would like to give a crack at it. Cheers!

Cheers! I think it was meant to. The reason being that the reflection from the sun is bouncing off and giving a nice glint from the tip of the rock. - Matt

And now that I know the difference, most would tell me the same thing, so, it's a matter of preference. I guess what you were going for maybe not what I see, but more importantly of what you see. This looks like a beautiful place for a good photo, and I would've liked to see more detail in the background. Cheers!

Was only a snapshot at the time, but one from the bunch did get used in Mrs Dave's poster for her presentation and is still getting her compliments from the suits at work so... Cheers, Dave.
