Overlooking Wharfedale

by LongTimeLurker

Ilkley Moor looking north towards Addingham. Beamsley, Simons Seat, Greenhow and Great Whernside in the background.

This is my patch and on days like the one on which the picture was taken, I am reminded about how lucky I am to be able to walk here.

K5 and DA 18-135 at 18mm. No post-processing apart from a conversion to JPEG format for uploading.

I can assure you that I don't have a copy of the fabled Pentax 74099370mm f/0.9 telephoto lens

I suspect the EXIF has been mangled by FastStone which I used to covert from RAW to JPG.

From memory the settings were 18mm f/8 (or f/11) at ISO 200.

Getting older and grumpier. Taking longer to decide which lens to use today.

I was up there myself last Friday afternoon, the light was so changable, rain, cloud, blue sky, rainbows. Forgotten how nice it was. Nice shot by the way.

Well shot, a great example of 'getting it right in camera'. The people add tremendously to this image.

Thank you all for your comments. They are appreciated.

Being mired in the world of IT (my day job), I assumed that when I started my foray into digital photography that I would spend much time with my computer performing post-processing. What I have learnt is that one of the aspects of photography that I enjoy the most is, to quote David, 'getting it right in camera'. So much so, I spend as little time post-processing as possible.

This photograph is one I am particularly pleased with as I thought about the composition and the exposure, and the result is as planned. This does not normally happen to me
