    Thank you Jazmine and Takem02 for your lovely comments:)
    TM02 You can lose a lot of height when you crop to level the image out,I usually take 5 to 7 shots and then stitch them together,but the method I use is to turn my camera sideways
    so that they are in a portrait mode and not landscape mode:)

    One from the other day showing Keswick on the extreme left and Derwentwater, and Bassenthwaite Lake on the right, in the background are the Whinlatter fells on the right and the Borrowdale fells on the left. It was an awful day for Photography hence why this shot is a bit "mucky".

    It was from part-way up Latrigg Shiney, it was blowing a Hooli on the very top and it was all you could do to stand up straight...let alone focus a camera!

    Oh well!:o Latrigg is just in front of Lonscale so I wasn't too far out :).

    That can be a nasty spot when the wind is up and it comes blasting through the valley or over the mountain but, as it gives a brilliant view of the B. Fells, I shall remember that angle for when the conditions are right. Thanks :thumb:

    Thank you Shiney :thmb: no filters,that's how it comes out of the camera,I am testing a Nikon out,but I think the colours are to harsh for me that is,I really prefer the Cannons more natural colours ,but that is only my humble opinion,Horses for courses:)

    Hi woo,

    Well, the clouds certainly stand out :thumb:

    I also preferred the colours that my Canon gave to the Panasonic that I am using now:( although the Panasonic is quite good.

    Whats your software for stitchingthe panos Woo, I'm just curious as I use Photoshop.

    BTW...you can probably tame your colour saturation down in one of your cameras menus somewhere to get it to your liking...depending on the camera of course.
