Brothers Water 2
A follow up to my earlier image of Brothers water in English The Lake District.
This time I zoomed in a bit from my previous wide-angled view to get a bit more detail on the hills and composed with the water line midway to take advantage of the beautiful early morning reflections.

Unbelievably beautiful Rod and there’s no doubt that RB knocks spots of that other place when it comes to showing one’s photos off in their best possible light. There is just no comparison. Brilliant piece of work and it must give you a great sense of satisfaction – I know that I would be over the moon were it mine! All best wishes, Peter
rodsfotos replied
Thank-you so much Peter, you are very much correct in saying that about the viewing quality of images here on RB, they are far better than those compressed ones in that other place, it makes the work so much more worthwhile when the viewer actually sees the image as it was when edited,
Regards, Rod.

Again a wonderfully simple but very effective image. The reflection is spot on and even though the water looks mirror calm there is sill just a hint of motion in the bottom half of the image.

full size is just breathtaking—I want to walk the ridgeline to the top – as usual such great clarity and I always enjoy the fact that your photos are not overly (if at all ) manipulated – dave

Thanks so much Dave, I do use Photoshop but keep it to a minimum, normally just levels and USM, I try to get it right on camera and find that saves hours of trying to rescue a nearly image,
