Autumn beauty comes to Greenfield

Autumn beauty comes to Greenfield
An hour or so walking around Doves Stones reservoir and I am on my way home. However just a few hundred yards from my walk car-park, I see this wonderful lighting aberration to my left. An emergency stop and gallop to the other side of the road in order to capture what I can. We are seeing here ‘Indians Head’ (see the nose, mouth and belly) on the left of middle horizon and the end of the ’40 row’ line of cottages on the bottom right. To our left we can see the great green dam wall of Dovestones reservoir itself and just above that, the entrance to Chew valley; another fine walk and photographic venue for me.
Of course the thing that makes this is the lighting. The beams of sun breaking through the high mist here, lighting up golden trees and field alike. Ah bliss!

Must be viewed large to appreciate the beauty here, and see the Indian's Head! The rays of light look stunning, and of course you made an emergency stop :) All the best, Rosa

Had to stop there. There are double yellows all along this road but I was just coming up to a rare layby, hence the squealing breaks :) So happy that you enjoyed this one. In fact I spend some time here, wondering up and down the road just watching al this happen with another enthusiastic photographer who had done the same as me. Took a few shots so more to come for you.

Take care. Herb

So glad you like this one Keith. In fact, it looked quite disappointing here on Ipernity compared to seeing it in my photo editor having lost some of the all important ambiance somehow but if it worked for you, it must have been OK.

Keep safe my friend. Herb
