I was on a trip to Glasgow and Dundee last week and took some timeout to look at the western edge of the Yorkshire Dales. Up in Kingsdale, near Ingleton there were some fantastic open spaces.

Lovely landscapes, but #4 and 5 are good too.
#3 is my pick of this set.

Lovely, the yellow sun contributes to the feel. It looks very calm and quiet there. TFS Howard

I very much like your Photographer's eye with 6. The bridge in 4 is my favorite landscape.

I wonder if you have more frames going around on the first? The more panorama the better, it's a striking landscape. Great job!

Thanks very much! I did post some monochrome conversions in the Grey Scale thread, see https://www.dyxum.com/dforum/the-grayscale-23_topic140935_post1709005.html#1709005.

The first photograph here was produced from three frames, and there is one more from this spot which is with 24mm framing as opposed to 70mm as in #3,



I have some more from a different valley that I took the following day, and I'll post those when they're ready.

Great to see these and looking forward to seeing your follow up wondering which 'valley'or dale? I was born in Nidderdale where my father was the only doctor, primitive times, I can remember when the village at the top of the dale didn't even have electricity and when in a severe winter the RAF would fly my father in for a medical emergency along with a few hay bales for the sheep!! Hiked all these peaks at one time or another, a real trip down memory lane.....

Very interesting, Brandy. Apologies if the residual Yorkshire person in you is offended by the choice of the word 'valley' (I'm from North Devon and we don't have any dales there!) They were different times; my grandfather was an Exmoor hill farmer and we'd visit him, sitting in the gloom before he would deign to switch on the generators to power the lights.

The next pictures are from the roadside between Kirkby Lonsdale and Kirkby Stephen, looking across to Caustley Spout and to Wharton Fell, as far as I can judge from the OS map. We were on a timetable to get to Glasgow so not much deviation from roadside. I'd like to get back and spend a few days in the area.

I like the 8th. Even in the full day, the low-lying sun gives beautiful shadows. And the colors are great.

I agree with Mariusz but find #9 a strong shot too.

Agree with both; 9 is my favorite with backlit ponies
