    Yup, never managed a shot I've been pleased with, despite having Wistman's Wood and Black-a-Tor Copse to play with.

    Yup, not easy and I’d like to improve. I wouldn’t say mist is a must, but it sure helps! I don’t enjoy editing or think I’m much good at it, but what I’ve found is that editing woodland is the inverse of almost everything else, with subtle changes needed. High contrast, high clarity, sharpening, wrong whites/blacks can soon turn a potential image into a delete.

    A cracking day to walk up for a lunch picnic at a viewpoint above Die, and looking back to my village in the foothills beyond. I'm sure I've mentioned it before, but the big snowy mountains behind are 20 million years younger than the little green mountains in front.

    Another murky day here but I decided to rise above it to where the skies were blue. Went to take photos of my club’s mountain race but in making sure I packed all the clothing I needed for after my parkrun I forgot the minor item of my camera so only had my phone. Very atmospheric with the fog in the valley and the mist rolling down the hillside behind the pond

    Yeah, there seem to have been some amazing temperature inversions lately - a friend went up to Dartmoor a couple of days ago, and that seemed to be one of the few places in Devon that was above the murk, and he had a spectacular view across the top of the murk, walking in T-shirt and shorts.

    Talking of murk.

    And a very rare postbox.

    My daughter has been doing a job at some castle outside Barry for the last couple of nights so I’ve had to kill time between dropping her off and picking her up. I took my camera yesterday but it very cloudy and misty. Tonight was due to be the same so I didn’t take the camera and brought the dog to walk instead. Typically the clouds cleared and the stars came out but I had to make do with my phone handheld. Will be back once the Milky Way vote returns in a few months.
