Another view of Merrivale Tor
I'm just going through the last of the shots from my recent outing to Dartmoor during the thaw. I've got a cute shot of some sheep that I hope will make it through the digital darkroom.
If you've seen my recent postings, you'll know that Merrivale is near Princetown in the heart of Dartmoor. I'm not sure what the hut on the left is, but it's fairly close to some farm buildings so is no doubt to do with that.
I relaxed my normal rules for this shot. I rarely do landscape shots without something remarkable (to me, anyway) to include for compositional purposes. In this case though, I just wanted to make a good shot of the Tor and put it in context, more of a record shot than my usual.
comments / critique / feedback always welcome :)

Good shot Mark. I see there is still some snow around.
A beautiful shot, I love landscapes. This one is so peaceful.
Thanks for visiting my blog. Have a nice day :)
Nice work Mark, did you walk to the top?.
Mesmerizingly beautiful photo!
Thanks Dors and Linda - @imac: hehe! No, 20 mins of walking around in the biting wind, to make the shots I did get was enough for me.
@Betty: If you're ever in this part of the world, you must visit this area!
Nice place.
A really exquisite photo!
Hi Chapa - good to see you around! Glad you like the look of Dartmoor.
@Sylvia: Too kind :) When you were in the UK did you ever visit Devon?
I am expecting Cathy or Heathcliff to walk across the moor! Breathtaking photo.
Thanks Merri - nice bit of synchronicity, this being Merrivale Tor. Maybe you should have one of my prints of this on your wall!
Love the feeling in this landscape. Nice work.
