The wind eased off just as I got there and I took a few shots in the near dark. I could have brought a lot more detail from the shadows, but wanted to process it as I remembered seeing it.

Simply beautiful, there's nothing better than the silence of the early morning and waiting to get that image you have been longing for! Great shot!
Hi Alf, I like this as it is leaving the shadows alone. There is a brooding sense of solitude and quiet here. You have excellent light and just enough exposure to keep the image sleeping. Great image!. How far did you travel at 3:30 AM to get this? Congratulations. Larry
Saastad......Many Thanks!
David...Indeed it's one I have been waiting for the right conditions for some time...Thank you very much!
Nik.....Thank you for your positive feedback!
Larry .....It's always tempting to start meddling with shadows and highlights and sometimes it pays off too, but in this case I liked it as it was and decided to leave well alone. I travelled just under 90 miles for this one and was back home by 10.00 am Thank you so much for your thoughts!

Thank you so much for your thoughts!
It’s natural and Beautiful Alf . Always a big decision about how far to take it post processing. Like you say it’s good to present as seen on location . Too much shadow lift can take it into HDR territory, if that’s your thing. I think that viewing predominantly dark landscapes like this on a larger monitor will reveal more detail in the shadows anyway- well done a lovely image-Andy 😊
