By Paul Huntley - I created this picture at Dove Lake, in the Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park, Tasmania, Austalia. I had been looking forward to hiking the week-long Overland Track which begins at Dove Lake, for many years. I created this picture on the day prior to setting off. I've tried to capture the mood of that dark and rainy day, a prelude of what was to come. I used my Leica M9 with 35mm summicron lens handheld to create it. In post production I converted it to monochrome, added vignetting and dodged and burned various areas. I finally added plenty of grain to better reflect the mood of the place. I also like that fact that you can only just see the boatshed.
