Some attempts at landscapes

[Big Kev]

I've lived up in this part of the world since I was five.

It's called Worlds End and Panorama and it's right on the edge of the Vale of Llangollen (said with plenty of phlegm)

Lovely countryside. My parents used to take me and my brother up there when we were kids and on a whim we decided to go back up for a look at the weekend, some 25-30 years since we were last up there. Hasn't changed much The weather wasn't ideal for landscape pictures but it was a nice nostalgic morning out.

The house I grew up in was called "Llangollen" - interesting
Nice pics!

They've all got lots of potential Kev.

Did you shoot them in RAW? If so, you can do stuff to them to improve contrast and other cool stuff to make them even better. Even when you do everything right in the field, you don't always get a full range of contrast.

Have a play with them and see what you come up with.

Good lord man, get that bike out! It looks glorious.

Yes I always shoot in RAW. They've already been tweaked.

While I was photographing that stream, a cyclist fell off in front of me and dislocated his finger. It's a dangerous pastime
