Good evening everyone and I have been delving back into the archives for tonight's image as I am so busy putting the final touches on a lot of exciting events that I will be able to reveal in the coming days.
So, onto the image in question. I have been photographing this scene for over ten years now and I never, EVER tire of it. It's the beautiful Castle Crag (the small triangular fell in the centre distance which incidentally just so happens to be the lowest Wainwright that exists).
This shot was captured during a workshop back in late October 2016 when all of the wonderful autumnal colours were out in full bloom. I have deliberately gone for a long exposure to smooth out the water which for me suits the scene wonderfully well. Long exposure images also tend to pull out the available colour too which generally allows for a more impactful image. The sky was fantastic too. Real drama present.
I hope you like it. p.s. note the white bird on the post?
