As Autumn turns to Winter around here we see one of those rare mornings of mist and sun. A long view towards my historic favorite tree from over the reservoir here. We also see the glistening steep path climbing and curving up the length of Chew valley.
Pips show same tree
Enjoy large

Thanks a lot Toz. Great that you know this same tree well now too. I seem to have taken this tree from every angle and range since it was quite small in 1977. I had quite a lot on Panoramio maybe I shall put some of those on here too. Anyway - another misty shot here taken only yesterday when the mist was rolling off the hills. Very happy that you approve and liked it for a new star.
Cheers, Herb

Herb Riddle club has replied to Steve Paxton club
Hi Steve, I think you know this tree from your other side of the world nearly as much as me, as you have followed it since my entry into Panoramio in 2009. As you said no two views the same and it is now getting quite old. When I pass it, I often see flowers underneath depicting a memorial of someone else who loved that same spot too, maybe even having their ashes laid nearby? - Great that you have loved this too.

Cheers, Herb

Good that you have enjoyed this Dan. You see in this scene and my tree what I see -poetry in the making. My heartfelt thanks. ~ Herb

I love how the mist diffuses the light and mutes the colors, turning the landscape grey as if it were an ageing head of hair. Neira is right, it makes one think of silence and a somber poem.

Hi Annalia and welcome to my gallery here. Always great when someone recognises what I see in photography too. This is my local walking countryside and it has the magic ability to make poems and music -even silence. Glad you liked it.

Best Wishes, Herb

A phenomenally atmospheric image Herb............I love the silvery light and the mist hanging in the air like gossamer! The lone tree is just wonderful. Definitely deserves to be viewed large!

Beautifully composed and taken sir!

You describe it beautifully Herb. I love the middle pip as well as the main shot. The snow picture is gorgeous and the third pip is delightful with the lovely, almost mirror like reflection!
Cheers, Rosa.
