Judith Morgan, Glencoyne Bay (SOFT LIGHT - Entries close 31 May 2026)

This image of was taken at Glencoyne Bay in the Lakes District of England. Exposure was 1/320s at f/11 and 200 ISO. Focal length was 24mm. The camera was hand held. I used Lightroom to edit the image, cropping to a 3:1 ratio. Clarity was reduced to provide a painterly look, and a slight vignette was applied. Green and yellow saturation was reduced slightly. A radial gradient was applied to the central birds and the exposure slightly increased.
