It’s been a hectic week here, with four back to back days of photography. I can’t recall the last time this happened, but I wasn’t going to miss the opportunity.
The first day was a trip over to the Peak District to meet up with a friend. That almost didn’t happen because the Snake Pass (which is my usual route) was closed by snow and ice. Fortunately, I had the idea of driving down to Winnats Pass which I reasoned was more likely to be clear. When I did arrive, there was snow and fog everywhere, making for some amazing scenes.
Following this, it was over the Lake District for three more days enjoying the Landscape, as well as more fog and snow. The image you see here is from the Sunday at Tarn Hows. It’s five exposures which I’ve blended into a single image as the composition just didn’t allow me to use an ND Grad.
I captured the images with my Fuji X-T2 and 18-135mm Fuji lens hand held. Fortunately, the bracketing option on the Fuji means you only need to press the shutter button once to take all the images in the sequence. This allows you to concentrate on holding the camera steady for all the shots.
I hope you like the image and have a great weekend.
I do like the image, with it’s light, the scene, the fog, the reflections.
Thank you. It turned out better than expected. I’m thinking of showing the editing as next weeks YouTube video.
Your favourite place!

One of them.
Hi Robin, you probably wondered why the ‘kisses’!? I actually thought I was forwarding this to my wife (it is her favourite place) but it obviously ended up going to you! Apologies.
I did wonder but it made me smile.
Gorgeous, what did you use to blend the shots
Thanks. I used the HDR option in Lightroom as I was in a bit of a hurry. I could probably do a better job with a Luminosity Mask in something like Lumenzia.
Cracker of an image, thank you.
I think I’d buy an A3 print to stare at!
Thank you. I have to admit the print does look good and you have reminded me that I need to upload more images to the new online store I’m setting up. I’m also going to use this image to demonstrate some photo editing in my next YouTube video.
