In reply to UKC Articles:
Fascinating article and great photos. But I'm going to put my head on the block here and say that, to my untrained eye, the results don't look as good as the Abrahams' originals. I've just been leafing through George Abraham's "British Mountain Climbs", and to me, the images seem better - not so much the compositions, but the contrast, depth of focus and overall clarity. Now some of this may be down to the light leakage mentioned, or the way they are reproduced on UKC, but I'd like to think it goes to show what complete masters the Abrahams were. I suspect that even a photographer as talented as Iddon would need more than a few months, and 75 shots, to reach that level. I'm a total amateur when it comes to photography, so I'm bracing myself for the drubbing which I will no doubt now receive. All that said, I absolutely love the picture of Shauna Coxey!
