Battersea Power Station is a decommissioned, Grade 2 listed coal fired power station on the south bank of the Thames at Nine Elms. Now repurposed into a shopping and leisure centre. The sky is erm, quite genuine. (Nose grows an inch).

Snow flakes gently falling
A white-christmassy theme this week.
To see the flakes you'll have to look at the original size and zoom in, these are made to view big :-)

The first one is from a snow shoe walk

and the next three are shot from my balcony

Merry Xmas to everyone !!

I like the bike shot, looks like an ad. And the last too.

Brrr! Love these, very festive. That window! The two birds make a great composition.

Castell'Arquato

Castell'Arquato, is a fascinating Medieval village perched on a hill top, near Piacenza(Italy). It can get quite crowded, especially in the summer, as it is a popular day trip destination. I went there a few weeks ago on a Sunday, and the exterior shots I wanted were impossible. I hoped last Sunday, that being Christmas shopping time, the place might be less crowded. I wanted to do some post sunset shots of the exteriors, to have better light.

I mostly used the D850 with my 24PC

PS I have made a thread here where I ask you all to post your 12 favorite shots that you have taken this year

This part of the thread shows some shots I took for my Romanesque project, as it got progressively darker

This is interesting because two parts of the frame were spot lit. I was able to recover an incredible amount of detail from the shadows.
Before and after.

December landscapes

December has so far been unrelentingly grey skies and rain. But the colours of the landscape can be surprisingly rich.
No seasonal snow here, but a Merry Christmas to all!

Marvelous image, however it came about 😁

I like this. The off beat composition works well.

Dirty pleasures is the one that intrigues me the most, for some reason. I like the flying rats shot too.

Lovely shots - and including my favourite birds too, ciao! 😁

Our snow has long disappeared. The last two are my picks. The two birds shot was good timing, that shows we do not need 120 frames per second.

Nice one, even if Collodi, would be proud of you.

Beautiful building. I like the way the different elements are all jumbled together like a pile of child's building blocks abandonned mid play.

Some memories of late autumn in begin of winter..

Last week here was quite bad weather wise, this nice snow cover turned into water and ice. So I'm spending my time looking at photos made in late autumn near my apartment...

Wow - I love this. Amazing Escher-like building.
Your thread link doesn't work though.

This shot is so pretty.
