The Black Mount from Rannoch Moor
D7000 16-85mm at 20mm ISO 100 1/3s at F16 tripod, MLU, cable release, polariser and 3 stop ND on sky and hills. A few tweaks in Capture NX2.

Taken this morning. The sunrise was a disappointment but it was worth waiting around for (the other three photographers had gone by then)as cloud built up and cast some shadows on the Black Mount. Chilly morning -3 and feet like blocks of ice.

Many thanks for your comments on my last post. C+C warmly welcomed as always.

PS PLEASE VIEW LARGE.

Absolutely drop dead gorgeous Nick. I love the way the river leads the eye from right to left and into the distance. The light is delightful and the detail is amazing. Spot on. :toast:

Get yourself some neoprene linded 'MuckBoots'. Minus 13.5 in the fens earlier this year and my feet were toasty :wink:

A beautiful scene, very nicely photographed too, Nick. I can second Bob re the neoprene Muck Boots, I have a pair and they are just superb and very warm.
