The Lion, The Lamb and Three Trees
No, not the sequal to The Chronicles of Nadia by C S Lewis, but the view from one of the paths up Silver How back towards Helm Crag, Grasmere.

Not the best time of day with slightly harsh lighting, but gives an idea of the colours straight out of the Olympus DSLR cameras.

Olympus E-3, 14-54mm at 54mm, 1/400s at F5.6 iso 100, tripod, jpeg, natural, noise off, sharpness -1, saturation and contrast normal, full frame, resize and sharpen in CS2.

Hi Mike,

I like the framing of this one,as the wall leads the eye into the frame nicely. However, the time of the day with the harsh light and slight haze in the background detracts from it a bit. Taken on another day this could be a keeper.

Cheers,

Dan.
