Image title:
Lone Tree, Malham

What camera, lens and settings did
you use to capture this stunning shot?
Canon EOS 5DSR, EF 17-40mm F/4L
USM lens, ISO 50, f22, 8 sec exposure.

How did you decide on
the composition?
The composition of this image was in
the main dictated by the limestone
pavement. Once you mount the hill
on which the tree and pavement are
located above Malham, the limestone
forms natural leading lines. I must admit,

however, that on this particular morning,
as we drove through the low cloud cover,
it was obvious that we were in for a
magnificent dawn.

What do you like most
about the image?
What I like about the image is that
although there was a bright sunrise in
the background, the darker detail of
the grass and moss in the limestone
pavement was still retained and visible.

Did you do much post-processing?
In terms of processing I did lift the
shadows to emphasise the detail in
darker foreground, particularly in the
valleys between the limestone strips,
and added a degree of vibrance.
