A place ive been to many times but never with any success...

Staple Tor is incredibly accessible and one of the most photogenic tors geologically so getting it to yourself can be difficult...

Pretty much everything fitted into place for this shot, there had been thick cloud all day that seemed to break readily in the high wind so the chance of some good cloud at sunset and a gap in the clouds was promising. I headed to the western side of the moor watching the weather as i drove. After looking at a few different locations i decided that the rocks at Staple tor would frame the setting sun best..
The contrast of the light was difficult to balance i used a .9 soft grad and also bracketed shots to blend later.

That is stunning! :) The way the sun draws these straight narrow beams of light is cool!

Have you ever thought of taking the HDR lighting from your images and making it available to people doing 3D animations and images? ... because it adds to an image .. and the 3D arena is competitive .. as is photography.

It is just a thought ...

Sorry ... I am talking about HDR lighting ... what you can capture from your photos in Camera Raw, and applying those HDR settings to other images!

It is not hard, but I don't know how to explain it much better, as I have not done it, just Google HDR lighting in 3D animation ... might be easier to understand in your native language.
