Fire & Ice

Clatteringshaws Reservoir showcasing nature's contrasting warm and cool colour palette during sunrise on a winter's morning in the Galloway Hills. I love the composition of this "quiet" landscape shot. The deliberate framing of objects, shapes and colours provides a good level of compositional balance and tonal harmony in the scene.

As a side note - I was asked here before about producing a video type thing about a shoot and processing. Would anyone be interested in a quick video about about a shot I posted previously? I took a quick iPhone video on location to sort of test the water and whilst I'm not a professional or in any way an expert in landscape photography (or videography) I'll cobble something together if there is enough interest. Be warned, it won't be to the standards of Thomas Heaton, Ben Horne or the likes!
Nice.Yes! teach us!!!

Beautiful.Drove down to Niagara Falls this morning for some winter shots.
I like the selective focus across the scene, Molly! Was it achieved with a PC lens, Lens-Baby or in post-production?
Awesome! You’re on a roll lately.

Very cool result! The idea of it having that certain element of randomness to it is quite enticing as compared to using tilt on my tilt-shift lens.Thank you! I used the LensBaby Edge 80.

That is so pretty. It looks like blown glass.An unusual little succulent from our cactus garden. I reckon it looks more like something you might find in the ocean, rather than on land.
