Through The Tree Line and Beyond....

Photo Information

This was shot today on a walk on top of the Derbyshire Moors, about two miles from Owler Bar. The light today on the tops had to be seen to be believed - it was very special. Taken with the K-x and DA L 18-55mm, Polarising Filter and Tripod. It has had very little PP, it's almost as it came from the camera, bar a tiny bit of sharpening and a small amount of levels adjustment.

Sorry for being bossy, but YOU HAVE TO VIEW THIS LARGE!

I like this especially as I have been there recently. I find to my tastes that the middleground is a little cluttered but thats probably just me. The air looks exceptionally clear into the distance though. Wish I could have been out there with you. Well seen. Does look better larger....

I totally agree, please view LARGE

Lovely jubbly, particularly like the line of trees. Definitely a good winter scene for the polariser, entire image feels 'calmed' and equalized

Pentax pour des images riches en détails!
