Ashness Bridge, Keswick, Cumbria

[Neil UK]

Possibly the most photographed image in the Lake District within Cumbria in the UK.

Decided to treat the wife to this view as I had not been here since I was 10, 24 years ago to the day it was aswell. After the start of the day being stupidly cloudy I thought we would miss out on a beautiful view but on arriving the skies cleared.

Waiting for around 15 minutes for everyone around to vanish we had the place to ourselves for at least 30 minutes which gave me enough time to take a few test shots and then get what I was after.

Aperture Priority on F8, tried a few on F9 and F10 but to dark and light.
White Balance went into Daylight to capture the blues in the sky along with the colours on the ground.
