The Bench
Well I know you are sick of this view, was taking some panaramas up there and well, when I walked passed I could not resist having another go at it. I just know there is a good image here its just getting the best lighting, well another try, I suppose Ill never be happy.
Thaks for looking Rich.

Rich Gale replied
yes I’m quiet pleased with it, the exposure is not perfect and there is some vingetting, I would of perferd some nice light on the bench but I took this in the morning I think it would get better ligth in the evening, I used my new 24-105 on this with a 2 stop NDgrd (I drop my 3 stop the other day and broke it) maybe the 3 stop would have darkend the top of the hill a bit more.
Thanks
Rich.

Certainly not sick of it and I really like this one. All the contrast in the different terrain. The colors and the sunlight skimming the grass. I wonder about all the conversatins that have taken place on that bench as well as all the thoughts thought in moments of silence.
Rich Gale replied
yes I can just hear them
” are we nearly at the top yet”
“I’m knakerd good place for bench”
“you go on Ill just wait hear”
“Bloody photograpers every wear I just wanted to sit down for 5”
Anyway thanks very much for the comments.

I’m telling you, Rich…add a cup of coffee and that bench will forever be my “happy” place! You can’t take a bad shot here I think….even if you have yet to take the shot that’s in your head. Keep shooting, though…I’ll never get tired of this place! :)
