A beautiful view Bev! I really love mornings like this and I always go out early to try and shoot the best views!
Lovely how you capture the cold and the warm sunlight at the same time.

Cheers,
Anneke

Hi Bev

Like the light of the sun trying to break through, you can almost feel the cold of this one.
I would have cloned or cropped it to remove the small piece of the fence on the right.

Hello Bev,

Wot! - no sheep!

The various diagonal lines in the image, from the overhead electricity wires, and the slightly tumbledown fences, help to break up the mistiness - the further fence giving a strong sense of perspective as it disappears into the fog.

You can feel the bite in the air just by looking at this, but hopefully the sun is just about to break through.

A nicely balanced composition, and a fine winter picture.

Regards,

Peter.

Hi Bev,

They are right you can feel the cold from this shot the sun straining to peek through the mist is great. Colours are great and details very sharp well done.

Hello Bev,

An occasion when the telelgraph pole should not be cloned out!
I do like the atmosphere that you have captured with this series of shots. I can almost feel the cold and sense the sun's efforts!
The diagonal fence in the f/g adds interest and improves the composition: a good inclusion.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)
Thanks for the comments on 'Tracks in the Snow'. Mmm, it would have been a good curve!

Hi Bev,

That winter-morning sky is really beautiful.
Must be the best time of day to get that frosty atmosphere in a picture.

Hello Bev, you have some lovely shots in your gallery, and this is just one of them.
I love the frosty feel you have captured,you must have been up quite early to catch this shot[?]
I like the composition with the fence on the diagonal of the corner.The hazy sun is in just the right place.
Tfs, regards Jean.
