December blues at Dovestones

December blues at Dovestones
Once again we take to our Dovestone reservoir circuit. Going around in a clockwise direction we soon come to this view by the fence that takes in the Chew Valley. Here we pass this magical silver birch tree again and drop down towards the little bridge over the river. A walk we have done dozens of times and even in dull wet cold weather I always find something that makes me push the shutter button.

For an alternative real winter view, see PiP's

Nice full screen.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb

Winding roads and paths that lead the eye are favoured subjects for us photographers. Especially so with rail too.

A stunning view Herb............even in the gloom. I love the way the light has picked out the route of the pathway. I like your lone tree.........and the dark hills in the background too.

Excellent work!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Annalia S.
Many times, especially with landscape photography, dull poor weather wins over clear blue. You know and understand that, that is clear. Thanks for like this.
