Peak District ramble saturday 220308

Good morning all

Just thought I'd share with you a variety of scenic & cloud pictures taken yesterday whilst hill walking with my family on the Penine Way towards Snake Pass to the south east of Glossop. It was a truely breathtaking walk, with plenty of lovely Cb shower clouds. We luckily missed most of them but did get one heavy snow/grauple shower whilst at 1963ft asl.....

I used a bog standard Samsung L830, but used a variety of different shooting modes for experimentation...A few of the photo's have been run through Picasa2 just to tweak the contrasts to give them a more 3-dimensional feel, but the majority were as they were taken....

Being still a relative newbie with photography I would welcome any tips and advice for the more seasoned photographers to hone my skills

Btw, the dodgy looking mug posing in the last photo is me!...Sorry for polluting my image on the forum! :lol:

Kinder Scout overlooking Kinder res then, great pictures and a fine place to get some groundwork in for tackling more challenging terrain.

Great cloudscapes and landscapes there, I really like the second from last shot, you've caught the curtain of hail (?) very well. Nicely captured icicles too.
