Christmas Eve in the Lakes

Took a run up to the Lakes from Lancs on Christmas Eve, Miserable at first, roads dryish but overcast and foggy/misty on higher ground. Then on Kirkstone Pass right by the Kirkstone Pass Inn the sun broke through but left fog down in valleys. Picture taken with camera phone at Red Pit car park just over the top of Kirkstone pass.

I love the way you got to pose as Rhodin’s ‘Thinker’ statue in the foreground

Yes, I think a lot. But not a great deal about how to compose pictures.Question is: How do you snap a pic with back lighting and not get yourself in the pic?

Paintshop…?

Stand further away & use a telephoto lens.

Yours Sincerely,

Thanks, Lichfield! It was taken on a cameraphone, so no telephoto lens.
And as for photoshop, it was enough effort for an ignoramus like myself to upload the link. Thanks David for getting the pic up and visible.
But it was a great day out, at least while I had my head in the clouds.

I’m so slow (or pissed). Paintshop and I’ve gone. Thanks. David
