FERMAIN VALLEY

15.11.21

Nestled deep in the valley, there’s one tree which stands out from the rest every year. Although the light wasn’t great, the tree’s showing a full spectrum of autumnal colours. The brown dead leaves at the top, yellows in the midde and lower leaves still holding onto their summer greens.

MARBLE RUN

13.11.21

I almost pulled the covers over my head this morning but me being me, got up anyway to check the sky and I could see it starting to pick up some colour 45 minutes earlier. A 5 mile drive later and a mad run down to Marble Bay I was greeted with this stunning sky. Sometimes a little extra effort goes a long way.

This is a good example of how the higher level clouds pick up the colour in the atmosphere.

LES NIAUX

11.11.21

Les Niaux mill, half way up Talbot Valley with a recently renovated hardwood wheel which is fully operational and provide power to a heat pump in the house. Apparently there’s been a mill on this site since the mid 1300’s. Originally used to grind corn, it was later converted to shred rags for the padding in uniforms.

THE PEPPER POT

30.10.21

I had no idea where to venture to this morning so I though I’d give this one another go. It wasn’t till 08:20 that the sun actually made an appearance. After finely tuning the camera in such a small space I got what I wanted (ish!).

FALLEN TREE

29.10.21

I went on the hunt for some Fly agaric mushrooms around the grounds of St Pierre Park but had no luck. On the way back I spotted this fallen tree which was still deeply rooted into the earth bank. Still growing, still changing with the seasons, just lying on it’s side!

Felt like splashing paint on a canvas editing this one. Base of a cinematic preset within LR then moulded to my mood!
