Nigel, I do prefer this version and not only because of the people but the view is so great! You must have been enjoying this climb! The sky and the mountains have such soft colours.. like that a lot! Mich

Great view Nigel,the blue sky and white clouds are
looking fantastic!! Climbing on the mountains is a
wonderful experience. I have a few more mountain
shots to be uploaded.

Outstanding and that lens and your climbing efforts paid off superbly. =^..^= sandi ♪

Nigel, what a lovely picture. I truly like the left, center, and top portions of it the most. Such a dreamy and soft view of the countryside and sky. Those clouds seem to be just floating by on their way to somewhere different, to impress someone else.

Excellent Capture Sir Nigel!
Foreground to Background........it's ALL GOOD!

Color, Clarity and Detail are Outstanding!
S&F to Best of..........Thanks for sharing.

Superb shot, Nigel and excellent post work. From your perspective I feel I'm right there sharing the view. The skies were particularly beautiful for your outing that day and you captured the color perfectly. This one's a keeper.

In my case, if the train isn't running, I'm not climbing. He he. This is a beautiful shot, and a gorgeous wallpaper. Is Mt. Everest your next challenge?

Thanks for the view mate!...I'll be ganning up there next month!...

Hope I get one as good as this!....

And the train Will have to run for me!...

Holy shitake! what an awesome shot! FAVED

I am with Shads on this Sir Nigel. I particularly like the left and upper view of the photo. The rocks on the right seem a little soft. Is that a oxymoron or just plain moronic on my part. It could be my monitor.

You probably would have climbed even if the train had been running. Good post.

Beauty of a landscape shot Nigel, composition just right and love that sky with those clouds.

Fabulous. I prefer this one.

I prefer this one as well. The other shot gives a greater outlook on the whole scene, but this one is just amazing. Looks like one of the computer images almost.

Absolutely Breathtaken..

OMGoodness Nigel, such a breath taking view you capture here. Wow really Beautiful. Good for you climbing up and catching this shot, Bravo

Wow!! Great shot!!
Absolutely Beautiful!!

Beautiful Nigel! Have made it a favorite and downloaded for desktop! Thank you! Allen

Sublime view! Could easy imagine sitting there for hours. You do these endless vistas so well. Love the floating clouds. From here you can actually see the sky moves sideways.

This is more my style! Don't know why but raw nature is what I like, without man or manmade things, except for what I said on the last photo about old stuff. Like ancient architecture! Great photo as always! Allen

This is strikingly beautiful For awhile, I thought this might be a composite image since the foreground is so textured and the background so smooth. I put in PS and enlarged it(am I mean or what)but it doesn't appear to be a composite. I can only pay it my highest compliment-KEEP-PAH!

this one is fabulous, i love the fact you included the rock in the foreground which adds some nice textures blah blah blah hehe. you can see for miles, its gorgeous!

This is good..Watch you don't slip..R.

This is my ultimate fave spot on the planet, and you have caught it amazingly!!! I go up there as often as I can but never ever got a shot like this. WOW

Looks like you had quite a hike! Both are excellent shots - this one is my favorite of the two. It seems to show more of the vastness of the scene.

Hello Nigel....Top class...just such a lovely contrast between the detail in the foreground, and the superb sky!
Congratulations!.....Well done Nigel....All the best to you....Mick.

Love the distance captured and the natural colour of this shot.

Splendid shot, Nigel!

I missed these shots from Snowdownia Nigel ....I think you must be incredibly fit to climb up to such heights! Stunning shot - even the weather was kind to you - the sky is perfect with those fluffy white clouds in the distance.

Hi Nigel congrats it's really an amazing picture.
Faved.
