Pendle Hill on a Misty Wet Day

[MX5]

Yesterday was Barley - Pendle Hill - Barley. For folk out of the area Pendle is infamous for the ladies what own black cats and ride broomsticks .

However these lightly leveled and sharpened images don't really convey the gloom ... it's a though the camera has cut through the clag:

Stairway To Heaven (17mm 1/250 f5.0 AutoWB ISO100)


TrigPoint (17mm 1/160 f5.0 AutoWB 100ISO)


Two on The Ridge (40mm 1/200 f5.0 AutoWB 100ISO)

I could barely discern the two people on the ridge using the Mark I eyeball. In fact my group vanished into gloom.

If anyone can explain the x-ray vision effect I’d appreciate the technicalities.

As for feedback … be as critical as you want on technical issues.
Thanks in advance

Re: Pendle Hill on a Misty Wet Day

no idea on the techno question, but that is a VERY foggy day. I can almost feel the damp!
if you could move it back and slightly higher, that second one would look quite arty.

David - I don't do arty so I'd not appreciate that. But it is a strange TrigPoint surround. Whilst I could have gotten further back, one of the few things I don't carry in my backpack is a set of step ladders

But it was very foggy ... whilst safe (according to the rangers) it was very hard to navigate for our leader. Glad I wasn't leader on that one, my turn tomorrow.
