Sorry about the arses, I'll get a couple of my model friends to walk past next time

Mint!! Love this one, really capures the Albi nicely, something my point and click doesn't :dapprove:

Awaits usual "what spoiler is that?" questions

 

[Jon.L]

[dynamique_g]

Where abouts in the lakes is that mate?

 

[GaryS]

I was there in time for sunrise at around 6am, set off from home at 4.40am... early but worth it for the empty roads

 

[GaryS]

Wrynose Pass area mainly, I also went to Coniston and Thirlmere - some non-Clio pics in the Photography section if you want to see.

Yeah, got me into trouble though... I got stuck on the grass in the 4th pic, it was a bit more icy than I realised, I had to jack the car up and build my own road underneath the tyres to get off

 

[WILLIE]

Boootiful! Love the second one.

Although, those three woman could do with a decent f**king hair cut...

 

[daydotz]

Nope. Although I went there once for a gig.

 

[martynrg]

Cracking pics! You must of been there early for sun rise!

I like the last selective colour pic. What camera have you got Gary?

 

[GaryS]

Selective colour pic? Wot dat?

 

[martynrg]

Actually it might not be, but at first glance the last pic in your first post looks like everything apart your Clio is black and white.

 

[GaryS]

I wish I had the faintest idea how to make everything other than the car black and white!

 

[martynrg]

Lol! Well in that case, it's a cracking photo!

 

[GaryS]

Thanks, the colour saturation was reduced a bit from the RAW file but that's as far as my photoshop knowledge goes :dapprove:

And in answer to your other questions, on the road at 4.40 am to get to Wrynose in time for sunrise and Nikon D200/D300.

 

[martynrg]

Cool.

Jees 4.40! Empty roads FTW.

 

[Leeshez]

Cracking piccys

Yeah, I was in the Wrynose area for 2 hours and saw 1 car!! Coming back the other way later on it was full of ramblers etc. I never understand why, with 100's of miles of footpaths, ramblers insist on walking down the middle of the road and then they give disapproving looks when you drive past them. At least they're in the hills I suppose, unlike all those who think you need crampons, walking poles and a rucksack full of supplies to walk from Ambleside car park to the pie shop.

[jablitt]

no, it's Co©kley Beck bridge, between Wrynose and Hardknott.

Gem, there's some location ones (minus the car) in the Photography section if you want to see 'em.

Cool..I shall have a gander, although the car really makes the pics imo!

Jealous!

 

[Tyssen]

Awesome pics

 

[Mike-bham]
