[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A veiw here from the Plas-Y-Brenin mountain training centre in North Wales. Here were looking towards Mt Snowdon just before the sun goes down, a little difficult to see here though because like many other days Snowdon is topped with low cloud.

PP = Cropped, levels, curves and my favourite overlay gradient filter used on the sky. Sharpened x1 and narrow frame.

Good evening John!

Nice one John. Composition is great here with these curves and mountains. Evene the cloudy sky adds interest in your compo. Well done.

Hi John,Excellent photo of a beautiful scenery. I like the smooth relfection of the sun in the water, leading me toward the road and onward to the mountains. Great colors and lighting.

Nice one John, moody and magnificent. Yes that cloud nearly always makes an appearance in my experience (having climbed Snowdon a couple of times). But then it could be that I have just been unlucky!
Well done!
Best wishes

Hello John,

i like this a lot! job well done!

Hello John my friend. I see you have snuck a couple in on me. Well composed, beautiful colour and superb detail. TFS,

Hello John, Using the PP has certainly resulted in a dramatic image especially the sky. The mountains from the foreground to the background are well balanced. Great composition. I have not been to Snowdonia since I was a child, shots like this make me want to go, now! Excellent photo.

Regards Roger.

Hi John,

Beautiful shot, very moody, excellent lighting, nice colors and very well composed. The slight PP work has enhanced your photo pleasantly and make the cloud patterns stand out.
Well done!

Hi there UK Bloke!! Well, a friend of Dawns is a friend of mine!
Quite a view, a dull day and looks like rain is coming too. The clouds on Mt Snowden look very heavy and the light from the sky certainly brightens up the water. TFS
Janice ...

Sir J.S

How's it goin' mate?
Nicely captured and well done on the comp.
Metering the lake would help your sky/white blowout. ;)
