Another one of my favorite peaceful spots on the lake. I have only once even seen another person here.

Great colour and atmosphere here. Is it the wide angle lens that generates those "lead in" skies, or do you wait for them to appear.

Hi Barrie Great colour and atmosphere here. Is it the wide angle lens that generates those "lead in" skies, or do you wait for them to appear.
It's a combination of factors really.
The wide and use of a CPL and ND grads helps but I do deliberately seek these skies. Having visited the area many times over the past 3 or 4 years - to some extent I have worked out where and when I am likely to get what I am looking for.
This particular spot is best late afternoon with the light coming in from the right of the shot. Wind direction also plays a part - a breeze from the North West on this day.
I took around 8 versions of this shot over a period of 30-40 minutes before getting the combined reflections and sky that I wanted.

Nice set of images, just returned from the lake district, great scenery, however £4 on every lakeside car park Wow.

£4 Bill? You weren't staying long enough - that only buys you a couple of hours Nice set of images, just returned from the lake district, great scenery, however £4 on every lakeside car park Wow.

I tend to use 3 or 4 car parks a day when I go but keep the costs down by using National Trust car parks where possible (free for members)
