[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I must start keeping a record of where I take shots, going back into some of my archives recently, have came across a number of shots that I cannot remember the exact location. If anyone does know the location I will update my notes.
This was taken as we traveled south of Dublin but before arriving at the Glendalough visitors centre.

Image much as shot.
Cropped a lone branch from the top right.
Increased saturation and contrast (shot in RAW, always need to do this).
Resized for TL.
Sharpened.
Added a border.

Good Morning Derek,

Wow, what a great landscape with a beautiful view of the lake!
The sharpness and POV are simply ideal with nice natural colors spreading allover. The greyish-blue lakewater brings nice charm into the picture, whereas, nice cloud's pattern bring mood into the shot and simultaneously enhancing the beauty of the picture too. the snow covered flat barren hills are just amazing along with snow in teh FG too. Very well seen!

thanks and regards,
Paras Bhalla

Lovely landscape Derek - sharp and the colours are well saturated from the use of the CP.

I know the feeling regarding notes with pics - it's difficult to keep up..

Beautiful shot Derek. The snow in the foreground and on the distant hills really adds a sparkle to the shot ... you can tell the air is crisp! Sharp as can be, beautiful composition, and the colors are great .. love the blue patches in the sky.

Hello Derek,
Great landscape. Very good POV.
Excellent light with clarity.
Perfect choice of framing.
I like very much the splendid colours and the shades of green.
Best regards.

Nice view looking across the lake.

Nice lighting and bright colours. The snow must have put a chill in the air.

Surreal cloud formations and wonderful composition. The mix of colours with the melting white snow is simply breathtaking. Really nice work here and you have extracted the maximum dynamic range and details by shooting in RAW. Useful notes too. TFS!
