Photographers Comments
Would appreciate comment.I have worked and worked on this as original was taken as a handheld chance picture without a tripod on a very dull day. Printed it now several times but hope this is the one!

Like it! The colours are great, and the cature offers a great sense of scale and height. Well done!

Excellent image - lots of interest from foreground to distance - sharp and colours great too - lovely subject matter (can you tell I like landscapes yet...? LOL)

Hi Sharron, you have shot this image well, with good foreground, nice lakes and the rain storm in the background, also good composition, very nice. The Ring of Kerry is a very nice part of Ireland.

Thank you both Mark and Paul. Have now printed it A3 and it looks good, very pleased with it. I had to combine different exposures of original to get detail which I though was lost. Happy that a chance shot without tripod on a windy wet day could be rescued.

Hello Barry and Thank you. This was in April and a pretty bleak day, leapt out of the car for a few minutes at the top of the pass between showers ( it's so true about the rain in Ireland being relentless ) so am pleased indeed. For me the satisfaction here is rescuing what looked like a pretty poor image ( water drop on lens, wonky horizon, burnt out sky) and ending up with a picture that is pleasant to look at. I love PS.
