Had a Sunday afternoon to kill in Liverpool, so went up the the Lakes and had a play with my camera...

Here are the results. Processed in RSE, and I think I have screwed a couple of them, would be interested in what you think.

Have already sold 3 prints of the first on on Photobox though...

Nice photos, Joe.

What is it with Wastwater? It allways looks black and menacing, even in good weather.

Someone was telling me it is one of the deepest lakes in the UK, that may be why it is so dark...

All were taken with a Cir Polariser (which at 77mm and being a Hoya HMC Pro1 was NOT cheap!!!). You can definietely see I used a polarizer on the last one...

Well done Were they people you knew who saw it and wanted a print, or just general public browsing your gallery by chance?

Oh, and just to keep it vaguely PH-related, the obligatory vehicular shot...

1 was someone in the office (I have some of my prints on the wall of my office, we have a nice colour laser) and 2 were general public chancing on them !!!

Can't believe it...

Nice one! Can I ask how much if anything you get for selling an image on there?

You set the mark-up yourself when you set up a pro gallery, and they take 10% of the profit.

So, you can charge whatever you think you can get away with...

Last time I did Hardknott was in the early 90's and I went over in one of the few works TR8s that Mr Pond did not wrap round a tree...

I had forgotten how much fun it was...
