Merry Christmas everyone.

#photography #nature #merrychristmas

A small robin with a bright orange chest and a greyish-brown body is perched on a black metal railing. The background is a stunning, out-of-focus display of warm autumn hues, primarily deep oranges and reds, creating a soft bokeh effect that contrasts beautifully with the bird's sharp details.

Sunset at Morecambe Pier, September this year.

#landscapephotography #photography

Sunset photograph showing a glowing sky reflected in the outgoing tide and sands of Morecambe Bay. The orange rays of the setting sun light up the cloud high in the sky. In the foreground there is a statue of two sea birds, silhouetted against the orange glow in the clouds.

Infrared forest photography is so enjoyable and beautiful with bright sunlight in the canopy.
This is one of my recent favourites from a wood near Eskdale.

Black and white infrared photo of a tree centred in the frame, with high contrast between glowing white leaves and dark black branches. The tree, its leaves and branches fill the entire composition. The brightness of the foliage gives an ethereal glow to the image.

Sicily. I think I forgot this one from last month. On the rural mountain roads we saw lots of the beautiful pom pom shaped trees.

During an early evening walk in a forest in Northern Italy, I managed to capture the last of the dying light in this small clearing.

Snow covered trees in a small forest clearing create arches into the deep snow on the ground. Early evening light on the snow in the clearing contrasts with dark shadows deeper into the forest in the background.
The only slight colour in the photo comes from hints of green in the dark leaves, mixed with lighter brown branches.

As I've mentioned in another post, I enjoy infrared photography. I also enjoy long exposures, especially over water. And finally, I enjoy processing to black and white. This image was made at 720nm at the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge near St. Marks Florida. #photography #infrared

I do not do much colour work these days. But yesterday's dusting of snow was a good excuse to have a go again.

Living down here in Dorset, we are always blessed with a degree of lovely fog. Autumn is best, and we have more than enough of it to go around.

As I look down this winding road, the air is heavy with fog. I can't really see the distance, as there is too much being masked by the weather, but the road leads to an old stone cottage. Light is breaking through the canopy, which is framing the house in such a way, as to show very little detail.

There are dead leaves on the ground, a sure sign that the seasons are changing. They are mostly black, and so difficult to see in the frame - but you know they are there.

Fir trees frame the square scene, with the darkest ones just above me. The air is cold and I'm looking forward to a coffee.

Ben Nevis on a rare cloudless day AND with snow on the Ben. A clichéd shot of the Corpach wreck, but when the conditions are right you just have to take the photo.

📷 Skyfall viewpoint in Glen Etive. Beautiful moody, misty conditions when travelling through earlier this year, and couldn't resist taking the cliché photo.
