This was back in the days of yore, which is to say, a Nikon D7000 using a Tokina 11-16 mm f2.8

Wow, yeah you've got to be careful with Tryfan; a good chunk of it is scrambling whilst navigating.

You are entirely correct.

Thank you!

Hah, well this area is the land of caves and potholes, where there's all sorts of weird and wonderful names.

• Juniper Gulf
• Redundancy Hole
• Braithwaite Wife Hole
• Bull Pot of the Witches

And loads more.

I like this imagery.

Yup! One of the oldest stone circles in England, making it around 5,000-years old.

Ta very much!

Well this is the thing, I deliberately went on this particular trip without my Sony a7ii; I wanted to see what my new phone was capable of. Quite freeing in a way, certainly in terms of weight and not having to change lenses.

Thanks! No focus stacking, this is from a RAW file shot on a Google Pixel 9 Pro XL.

Nowt creepy, just the most Silent Hill photo you'll see today.

Yup, that's Scotland.

Not a fisheye, no. Yes the fencing at the top left definitely helps. With the way the rocks angle down, it's hard to make a composition here.

It was definitely gorgeous light for sure. This is a Pixel 9 Pro XL JPG with some minor edits in Photoshop: lift blacks, dodge and burn to aid direction of light, subtle glow. That sort of thing.

Honestly, Pixel did 85% of the work.

Tune in for more.

Yup. And actually applies to a range of peaks. The name of the actual peak people take photos of, including mine, is Stob Dearg.

You're spot on.

I would actually say, around this place, nature is better than any photo can capture.

Nope.

Thanks!

Not AI generated at all, no. Would you like to see a screenshot of the original RAW file?
