About Stourhead was almost at its very best today!! Some of the trees were a little bare, but there was still so much colour around and the light was wonderful.

You don't need to tell me how fortunate I am to live so close to such outstanding natural beauty!! I walked around it in a spirit of gratitude. It was magnificent.

So enjoy it with me as I take you to different parts of the lake walk and share some of its glories with you. I'd be glad of your company and look forward to your reaction.

Best regards to all,

Chris

Incredible scene with wonderfull lighting and colors Chris!! I liked it when you said "I walked around it in a spirit of gratitude.", not everyone appreciate the beauty of nature around us that looks different everyday, what a gift from above!

Hi Chris, definately a gorgeous, and very well captured shot. Interesting suggestion Jim makes, though. It would work! Still, I do believe this composition is pretty well balanced. Very nice shot.

Cheers,

Hugo

To be really honest, Roger, I can't say I'd noticed it!!
It certainyl wasn't deliberate on my part ~ maybe I just focussed a little short of the trees?
Thanks for the comments! Glad you enjoyed the leaf series!! ;-))
Have a good weekend.

I think that stands for 'point of view', Merete?
Or else it could mean?
'prison officer's vehicle', or?
'park our Volvo', or?
'play on violin'!!
Sorry, just got up and the brain's a little muddled!

Hmmm. Deliberate slight defocusing of the more distant trees, extra sharp nearer to the camera. A deliberate attempt to give a sense of "depth"? Are you happy with the result?

Beautiful light here, Chris! The colours are outstanding, and your composition is perfect, as always!

Permitame felicitarlo por tener la gentileza de mostrarnos ese hermoso lugar por el que Ud. pasea. Evidentemente se necesita ser un muy buen fotógrafo para reproducirla con su cámara fotográfica. Felicidades. Merece un 7+++

Jim Goldstein   {K:21230} 11/4/2004
Great color and wonderful scene. I think you might be able to get away with cropping much of the top third of your image. Either way it works quite well. An extreme landscape would be an alternative. I think one could easily make the argument that the bare branches add to the image with the leaves on the ground.
