Blea Tarn Reflections
:wavey:

Been hard at work on the processing of landscapes and feel ready to share again, so back to my october trip to the lakes, went to Blea Tarn for the Langdales reflections but the low claggy cloud had done with that as i could not see them! had a rethink and went for this pano.

Pls view lrg!

As ever all C & C warmly welcomed

Great comp Phil. You could boost the contrast a little on the sky and darken them to bring them out slightly and also with the foilage if you wished. Very atmospheric.

Put some depth in it....!

I've shown you this a gazillion times already!

How can a scene have the same degrees of contrast, luminosity and saturation of colour right at your feet and a mile distant?

It can't..

There's a fall-off all 3 as you move further away from the camera.
