This is a four frame panoramic looking out over the Vale of York, taken from the Yorkshire Wolds, a beautiful area of hilly countryside that is full of glacial valleys and an astonishing concentration of 'pre historic' human activity dating back to around 3 to 4,000 years ago.

Taken on 5DII + 24-105L @ 98mm, f/8, ISO 160. The picture features the most strange optical effect that I've ever seen: the high ground seen on the left horizon through the rainstorm must be the Peak District, and on the right hand side horizon it must be the Pennines. These are over fifty miles away and I've never seen these before from this place, even on a clear day. I think it must be something to do with the rain, because i seem to be able to see over the normal horizon.

The white blob on the horizon one third of the way in from the left is the rainstorm hitting Ferry Bridge Power Station.


A real impressive photo. Love to look at it. Very deep. Great photo!
My son (13 years old) just yesterday went to the UK on a school trip for one week. He is staying in the Warwick area. Today he is travelling with his guest family to Stamford. I am curious about his photos but I am sure he will not run into an atmospheric scenery as you did.

Thanks Candyman ! Warwick is a very historic part of England - William Shakespeare country. I hope your son gets a picture of Warwick Castle; to date my attempts to produce one that does it justice have been unsuccessful ! Stamford is also a very old town. Everyone who goes there seems to visit The George Hotel, an old coaching inn on the main street.

I hope so too. Just yesterday evening he told us they will visit the castle today. Fingers crossed

GP, Swansong, C4bon, and Sporgon....ALL beautiful images!!

I’m not much of a landscape photog, but I’ve been inspired to look through my library for a landscape shot. Here’s what I came up with...

Love the user name Paul, I just signed you up on Flickr and really like your work mate. Landscape is in abundance in Scotland, not so much here in the desert :(

Cheers - I've returned the favour - cracking shots of the 24hr race! As for the username, well that's what 20+ yrs of martial arts left me with ::)
