Rowing boats moored on Derwentwater shore

Another view from the Keswick end of Derwentwater, from August last year - there are so many different pictures to be taken from this point! I just love the colours and shapes of the boats, and the backdrop is just beautiful, whatever the weather.

I had a lot of playing to do in Lightroom with this one, as the original was a hasty snap with a bright lake and sky and dark shady boats. To get to the final image, I used the grad filter, adjustment brush and tone curve to alter exposure, contrast etc, cropped and increased clarity.
