A Dovestones wall

A Dovestones wall
A view to Alderman’s Hill on the left and one of my favourite silver birch trees on the right. All hanging together in this lovely light as I shoot this from the edge of Dovestones reservoir here near my home. The traditional wall is of course the dry-stone variety, ie no cement nor mortar between the heavy square or flat sand-stones which were once quarried nearby. PiP

Have a good day.

That's why there are no high mountains anymore: they used the rocks to build walls. ;-)
Wonderful picture!

A few of our hills have got big parts missing because of these walls over the centuries but the biggest culprits are roads and buildings for sure. All in all though, climate has more to do with all that I think. ~ Glad you enjoyed this.

Thanks Rosa. Yes, I have taken a few photos of this silver birch but I think this is the first from this angle. The more normal is the one in the PiP.

Great light in this one Herb................and lovely warm colours, especially in the foreground. The silver birch tree is beautiful - I can see why you like it so much.

I have to say that the PiP is my favourite shot of the two.........the tree is much more "on show" and it looks superb against the sky. The dry stone wall draws the eye straight to it. I made some similar comments back in Feb last year and I haven't changed my mind since.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Thanks for this keith and spoken from the heart i believe. I like both of these shots with each quite a different light but light is the key to them both. As said to Judite above, another different light of the same tree tomorrow. Of course the walls were of importance here too.

Take care. Herb

Hi Herb
A very nice picture, with great autumn colours!
Soon me white with snow...Maybe!
Best Wishes, HWW and stay safe!!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Yes it does looks somewhat Autumnal I must admit even though it is plainly Winter as it was taken in December. These grasses often keep this red auburn colour throughout the year and that is enhanced somewhat with this rare low side-lighting. Yes, maybe snows in a bit but there already has been some but I was not there.

Stay safe and belated HWW to you.
