Description A black and white for Mr. Toby Edwards. I was struggling to make this work in colour because of the high contrast light so I switched to black and white.

wheres ger tor ive never heard of it? great exposure fail to see how the colour didnt work, what time of day was this?

It was midday. I generally discard shots taken in full sunlight though some do work. Bright sunlight creates flat textures and bleaches colours so in general I am not a fan. Ger Tor is near the source of the River tavy on the edge of dartmoor next to tavy cleave.

Ha. It was a good idea though, cos I think this image is superb. I like the composition.
