Lovely atmosphere to this, sums up the moors beautifully.

Excellent. A real bleak feel.

Fantastic tones in the clouds, and the silhouetted figure is spot on. Something bothers me though... I think it's about having two things fighting for dominance in that corner of the picture. Pehaps it would have been better having one or the other, or having the figure and rock spaced at opposite sides of the image.

Good one, Karl.

We were rushing about here 'cos it was literally gonna' burst with rain, the clouds were so heavy. Day was almost turning to night...

Great pic, Magic lighting.
Like Snappy I remember the moors just like that. Loveley warm sunshine followed by the "end of the world" type rain.

Ecxellent photo, Karl. I share some of Pentaxophile's concerns, but at the end of the day it's still a nice shot.
