Wasdale and a variation

Took a trip out to Wasdale on Saturday. All the places I wanted to take a shot from already seemed to have a tog with a tripod set up!

So found a spot of my own and took this. Also tried a bit of processing to create a split toned version. C&C please. Which do you prefer?

I notice another Pixalonian was out there this weekend. Almost like someone in my back yard.

Thanks for looking
Roger

Re: Wasdale and a variation

Hi Roger,
I like the first image best simply because I love the colour the dying bracken gives the scenery.

I was in Wasdale Saturday morning at around 0800hrs having slept overnight in Eskdale. When I arrived there was still a lot of low cloud which I guess didn't clear until after I left.
Photographically the biggest problem was trying to keep the camper vans and cars out of shot.
PS thank heavens for the versitility of RAW

It's some 35 years since I was there, then it was still quite remote. I was amazed at the numbers of people there now.

I'll post some more images when the five a day limit comes off

Re: Wasdale and a variation

Thanks Jake,

The best light came later but we were already home by then. It certainly was busy on Saturday and I would have preferred another viewpoint but they seemed to be almost queuing up to take pics. I am lucky I can pop down there in 30 minutes or so. Might try midweek some time.

Roger

Re: Wasdale and a variation

Lovely autumnal feel to #1

Being a sunrise taker (or formerly - I haven't been out for months! ) I found it extremely pleasant to climb some hill and have the place to myself - and then meet everyone else climbing up as I was returning home! Other advantage was that I'd get the full benefit of the best time of day (I think sunrise light edges it over sunset)

Re: Wasdale and a variation

Nice shot, I actually like the conversion as well, different feel but well done, so I like both Helpful eh?
