Shilstone Tor

Wednesday 8th June - Day 172

Another day, another quiet back road... this one took me right onto the very edge of Dartmoor. So close, that one of the Tors was in easy walking distance of the road - like 50 metres :)

A Tor, for the uninitiated is a rocky outcrop topping the many hills on the moor.

An alternate view is

Nikon D70 ,Tokina 12-24mm f/4 AT-X AF Pro DX
1/50s f/18.0 at 12.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

So verdant, and very nice graduations in the blue sky! It looks so isolated ... :)

Excellent composition with the frame almost being filled with the rocks in the foreground and just a sliver of blue sky.

Great shot - the D70 seems to excel with this type of landscape.
