Description Image

Mid winter? It seems the unusual seasons over the last 12 months are continuing. A beautiful sunlight morning overlooking the north eastern edge of Dartmoor and beyond felt more like the start to a crisp summers day. I've always envisioned a image like this, colourful vegetation and rolling green hills in low sunlight, I had stumbled across this location a couple of weeks before and waited till I had the chance to return and I certainly wasn't disappointed.

Location

Dartmoor National Park, UK

It's just down from Kes Tor, not far from Scorhill stone circle. You can see it on Google Earth

I love it when there is good visibility and I've been waiting a while for these conditions. All I can say is keep looking at the forecasts, although don't rely on them too much otherwise you might miss out on some great conditions.

Love the tree line, a new landscape I haven't seen from you boys from Devon! Nice image Guy!

It's certainly a change from the norm but something I would like to shoot more often, thanks

Love this picture. Perfect light, particularly the way that foreground shadow emphasises the near side of the stone circle. Some branches in the fir trees on the left are making a Gothic arch. Serendipity.

Thank you, I really do like the fact there is so much detail in this scene.

PastyGuy In reply to x-CoffeeCat-x [2012-02-02 18:52:04 +0000 UTC]

Well that doesn't mean I haven't been out and the conditions have been rubbish which has happened on so many occasions!

That probably happens more than the other way around yes >.<
well in any case, I love your photographs ^^
I'd love to see more
