Dam Flask Reservoir
I don't do landscapes as a rule but saw this while out on a shoot and thought I'd give it a bash. Dam Flask reservoir is located west of Sheffield at the top of the Peak District national park and is possibly one of the most beautiful venues I've had the pleasure to visit for a feature shoot. Autumnal colours help no doubt. The reservoir is currently about 30ft down on normal levels, such is the effect oa dry year has had on waters up and down the UK. This is the area know as the 'Neck End' and the grass you see in the distance is usually underwater - the fact the grass has growns so densely points to how long the area has been dry for.*Nikon D2x*Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 VR*ISO 200**1/320th @ f/6.3*Processed in Lightroom 3 using luminance tweaks plus gradient tool to beef up the sky
