Just thought I’d put this up ,me and my camera don’t see daylight often enough.
I like it Brian. I just tweaked it a bit. I used a velvia action and added a gradient to darken the sky. Added a little USM. too. The amended version is on Flickr but it’s marked private but you should have access to it ;-).

nice shot just makes you want to get out and go for a walk
scary road up to that sight
Cheers ken ,
Valentia ,thanks man for that ,the sky is a lovely blue , I used a polariser for another shot and it didn’t come out right at all.
I spent an hour or so around there ,trying to get to grips with the 10-20 lens .I found myself half way down the mountain at one stage .Didn’t realise until I had to come back up how fat I am :o :lol:PS The sooner the weather gets colder the better ,the haze will lift I hope.
Thanks
Brian.Valentia, couldn’t view the larger version of your modified shot, private page on flickr?
I like it though – very rich colours. Perhaps a bit too rich for “reality”?
This was my attempt from last year, of the same location but from a different viewpoint (jumped out of the car for 30 seconds, it was blowing a hoolie!):

Take it easy,
Dave.Probably my monitor dave ,It was really just to see how much I could fit into the sigma 10-20 lens.
To me it looks as it was .Thanks for the comments.
Brian.Good shot there Dave. I’m a divil for the ol’ saturation I’m afraid, a side effect of a boring, grey life I suppose :D
Brian,
I like the image, reminds me of the lower Alps in Bavaria, Germany. The shadows were a bit harsh for my liking so I used contrast masking to bring out shadow detail and control highlights in the sky. I then added a standard gradient to a new blank layer in PS, and used the overlay blending mode.
This is the result, let me know what you think:
thanks steve and mick ,steve I think because my monitor is not set up right the image you’ve done looks a little harsh on my screen :(
Mick I like the way the darkness brings out the lake and hides the haze ,is that called vignetting ??? .Cheers for the edits,
Brian.
