...I saw over Xmas, in UK, was fleeting. A walk up between Kettlewell and Arncliffe paid off with one shot from the day and later in the week I awoke one early morning and though 'what the hell', managed a couple early before the clouds came. Otherwise the weather was too dark and grey to bother going out.

Nice! They have that CGI look but it works very well here.

What pp did you apply, and were you more extravagant with the pp beacause the originals were flat?

These are truly amazing shots. Love the composition of both of them. And the color and dynamic range are astounding. Thanks for sharing.

first one is good, and second one is fantastic. A better sky on the first one would have been nice, but what can one do? Really nice and thank you for sharing

No more than the usual Raw conversion (I am back to using DPP) so simple settings and s-curve and a 3-5% saturation boost. Then in PS some contrast and colour balance adjustments. The light sorts out the colours on its own I guess.

Cheers guys, appreciate it.
