    A good balance in these three shots with the droplets tying them together. Surprised to see Forsythia already in bloom.

    I like the 3 similar image idea. I can feel the cold soggy weather in the first shot. It was been very wet here too.

    It is a really crowded, small sandy beach, but they still manage to put up a goal!

    Returning To The Moors

    Dark silhouettes and the Italian lake reflection shot are my favourites. I probably had FluVID a couple of months ago, or maybe even earlier. I think it started much earlier than usual this year. I don’t know what to say about your job situation; I wish you all the best.

    Winter Walk

    It must be a really tasty treat, since they built a tower for catching fledgling birds. It’s really crisp here this weekend too. I’m getting more and more disliking the cold as I get older, though.

    Returning To The Moors

    Backlit Tree

    As sunset loomed, I decided to head back down into the gardens, to see if I could catch some nice sunset tones on my way back through. As I rounded the Pigeon Tower, I spotted this tree nicely catching the backlight.

    Golden Pigeon Tower

    This is my favourite angle looking back up at The Pigeon Tower. The setting sun was lighting everything with pleasing golden tones by this point. Usually those stone bricks are a neutral grey colour.

    DSC_0492.jpg

    This is an angled view taken part way down the steps. The setting sun is to my left from this angle.

    Sunset Tones

    Realising I was going to miss sunset due to being surrounded by trees, I rushed to this more open spot to try and catch the tail end of the colour.

    DSC_0535.jpg

    There are some lovely shots here, beautiful winter light.
    Sorry to hear about the redundancy. Do you think you will look for something else, or maybe freelance? It's moments like this when we take stock and maybe branch onto an unexpected path. The opportunity to address fitness is probably a godsend. Hope all goes well for you.

    Winter Walk

    Last Sunday was a rare nice crisp winter day. I took a walk in the hills just above Reggio. The originale purpose of the tower is unknown, but it is holed to provide nests for Swallows, which were a local delicacy once. They would remove a certain number of fledglings.

    I never heard of people eating swallows before - can't be much meat on them!
    Those long shadows in the first are really compelling, as is the light in the last.

    Some bird shots

    Another lucky day with bearded reedlings. They were quite restless, staying in one place only for moment or so and then flying away, but still managed to get some shots. I hope to get more shots next year when it gets cold and snowy (fingers crossed!), then they seem to conserve energy and stay in one place longer.

    Awww... these are gorgeous. There were reputedly a few reedlings on our nearbly wetland last month, but no sign of them when we visited 😔

    Not very appetising! 😉 But the symmetry is appealing.

    I think it's winter jasmine. Peeping over the fence from next door.

    Lots to look at here. I've never seen pictures of the BM roof from outside - wonderful! I must make a note of that roof garden if I ever get to London again!

    Too crowded for me... Like the white building contrasting with colourful sun screens and clothing.

    You have nice weather and colourful landscapes. These 2 photos with such delicate sunset tonality are my favorites.

    First shot with its leading shadows is nice and last with nice shadow-blue background contrasting warm sun is superb.

    I think shots like this need to be symmetrical, current framing seems to be off. and I'd crop the sky off, it seems to attract too much attention due to its lightness, maybe just reflection of sky is enough.

    Like first one, maybe bit greater depth of field would been better to keep other water droplets and also rain in focus?
