I've hardly had anytime to shoot landscapes lately due to work and other commitments, the one time I did go out last week the light wasn't the best so it turned into more of a reccy trip, which is ok - it's just nice to get out again, hopefully this will change soon and I'll crack on with planning some more trips, the one good thing about this time of year apart from the sociable sunrise times is that when it goes dark early I can get some editing done knowing I'm not missing anything outdoors....

I've taken my own advice and begun going through unedited raw files sat on the hard drive, culling some, and picking out others to be edited before going to the newer images, this one was one such one I selected to process, I'd posted a shot from here a while back but I like this composition a lot more with the inclusion of the pockets of golden leaves amongst the rocks in the foreground, great evening light at sunset just moments before a gigantic rainstorm hit, made for dramatic conditions before retreating to the car. Not a soul around here tonight, which is pretty rare, probabaly put of by the off and on weather - always worth trying to get something, as if you don't try you definitely won't get anything...!
