Tewet Tarn sunrise
« on: December 29, 2014, 04:37:07 pm »

Taken at dawn this morning. The weather forecast had predicted hoar frost and early morning mist, but no luck plus the snow of the last few days had all but disappeared , still pleasant to be out in the early morning light however. Both are multi shot panoramas. I am not sure about the cropping especially on the earlier shot as I think I could lose a bit off of the RHS. Any comments.

I suppose you could trim a little off the right of the first one, but it isn't necessary on my account.
I love the sense of the clean, early morning mountain air and light.
Beautiful shots, both. If I had to pick on to put on my wall I think it would be the first.

I agree with Eric - if I had to pick one the first image would be it.
Lovely light and well captured.

Sometimes, just being there on your own and enjoying the serene beauty of the moment, should be more than enough to make it all worthwhile, so to come away with an image or set of images that accurately captures that tranquillity, is a real bonus and image #1 does that for me.  :)

Cool panos #2 for me for the water reflection

I prefer the cleaner foreground in #2. If you look at the horizon in #2, it appears to be somewhat distorted.

I like the more natural perspective in 1 and would not crop it. The tussocks provide punctuation.

Thanks everyone for the comments. Richard I don't know how I missed the horizon in #2. I had applied Photoshops adaptive wide angle correction for panoramas and then posted the version without it. The first pano has 8 shots Fuji Xe-1 with Fuji 14mm lens. The second is 6 shots Fuji XE-1 with Fuji 14mm lens thus the curved horizons.
I prefer the earlier shot but the cloud reflection in the second is terrific. I may have a look at monochrome after I have fixed the curved horizon.
I have been trying out my latest photographic accessory, Wellies. Both shots taken while standing a few metres into the Tarn.
I would have liked to have been a lot further in but didn't risk getting very cold and wet.

Over the years, in my work, I've shot wearing knee high boots, hip boots, and chest waders.  I've always found I wanted to be a little farther than the tops of my boots or waders would allow.  I've shipped water in my hippers wading in a coastal creek in Alaska and don't recommend it.

This was shot approximately 90 minutes after the Tewet Tarn sunrise. This time I am 2 miles away on the banks of Derwentwater with heavy mist swirling about and for a few minutes a tiny patch of sunshine lights up the shore. Much colder here than up in the hills above the lake.
I hope you like mist.

I prefer the first panorama, due to the better tones and colour in the sky.

Your third shot is also very nice, full of serenity.

I'd actually consider taking the second image and cropping the circular pattern the clouds make.
