Title: English Lake District: Great Langdale
Post by: RogTallbloke on January 22, 2019, 04:58:10 pm

I just got back from a snowy and cold trip to Langdale. It was worth the climb to get this panorama overlooking the valley.

Turning round the other way, I caught this view of Pavey Ark overlooking Stickle tarn.

Nice! Cropping off the figures in #1 leaves a well-balanced, engaging shot. IMO.

Thanks for the feedback. In retrospect, I agree. The question remaining is how far to go? For screen viewing, probably a bit more cropped. For hanging, maybe a bit less.
