Of Course I'm chuffed!

 When asked to submit a high res copy of one of my recent photos to a popular walking magazine I was a bit sceptical. Sure, nice to be asked but I was thinking it would be used in a small corner of a page and hardly noticeable, how wrong I was. Spread across a full two pages of Trail Magazine December issue is the image.

Taken on a wild camping trip a few months ago the view down into the Langdale Valley from near Shelter Crags. It was a perfect morning with the low mist right down in the valley and the sun just coming up.

 Techy stuff.: I have already been emailed regarding the camera etc that I used for this shot. Unfortunately there is not much to say as the camera used was just my simple Samsung WB500 compact camera set on "scene" and mounted on a small mini tripod, no filter etc. I took several shots using the self-timer and this was the best as the others had the dogs in not such pleasing positions. Hopefully it just goes to show that you dont need to have a big DSLR all the time to get that memorable picture.
