hello Leon,
you have captured a good light with which to show off the colours and textures of this landscape.The gold foreground makes a good contrast for the greens Roseberry Topping.The hedge and strip of land between the two lower fields acts as a lead in line.Looks good as a thumnail and doesn't disappoint.

Hello Leon,
I very much like the tonal contrasts in the landscape as we travel from the foreground to the peak. A fine composition captured under a very appealing light. The colours are rendered very well and natural looking. Good clarity.

Hi Leon,
A very scenic landscape that you turned into a very attractive photo. It's not only the picturesque profile of the hill, the pattern and lines created by the vegetation and the terrain on the slopes and the valley of the FG also contribute to make it very beautiful. The yellow below contrasts with the cloudy sky, acting like a kind of sun, producing a beautiful and unexpected effect, as the image has simultaneously the drama of a cloudy weather and the joy of sunshine.
Regards,
José

Hi Leon,
Very colorful landscape, I reallu love it. The lines of the fields guide our look to the mountain and give a good depth of field. Just a shame you had not a great sky, but this is something you can't choose !
Regards,
Olivier

Good to see you're still around Leon. I'm still having a break but look in now and again, so thanks for your visits to my gallery. Who can resist the iconic Roseberry. We pass by frequently and walk in the area. This must be the year they planted the oilseed rape and it makes the perfect foreground. Nicely framed image with vibrant colours.

Hi Leon,
I like the smoothly curved FG and the subdued colors convey the atmosphere well.
Good framing with just enough sky
