Grasmere - 2 & repost
A more traditional approach to photographing the mere.....looking across to Loughrigg Fell

Olympus E-3, 50-200mm at 55mm, 1/40s at F5.6, iso 100, circular polariser, tripod. Jpeg file, full frame, slight curves tweak, resize and sharpen

Beautiful shot. Good composition, and nice colours. The reed on the fg as entrance of the photo is very nice and the swan is a great additional element.

Hi Mike

You have captured a beautiful scene - small nit I feel it needs a little CW rotation!

Very nice Mike, the warm lighting is good, but it looks a little wonkey?

Besides the slight rotation it's a great shot with wonderful detail such as the swan!
Well done!

Greetings,
