    Nicely composed Matt. Is this taken with the Ricoh? It's a far cry from your earlier landscapes, you are obviously going through your Realist phase

    You should get up early more often. Enjoyed viewing Matt.

    The one good thing about this time of year (winter) is that I do not need to get up terribly early to take presunrise photographs.

    According to my calculations you have done it in the middle of summer! That is keen and was worth the effort.

    You're back with your landscape but I agree with Simon, you are back to being realist too...in pp that is. Not your usual deep colours.

    Hi Matt,

    Not your usual colour pallet but good.

    For me I want to see the grass in the foreground become a more emphasised feature in the scene. I had a play, in the foreground only (used a gradient) increased the green luminance, clarity and lifted the shadow slightly.

    After revisiting it I thought the foreground was a bit dark to be honest

    Lets have a look at your version?

    Here it is Matt. Not to say it's preferable, just an option.
