I climbed up Loughrigg Fell early with mist and fog forecast hoping to get some moody shots.

The light came briefly mid morning, casting a little warmth on what was otherwise a very cold and still, grey day!

I caught this walker making his way along the Loughrigg Tarn footpath whilst I was high up on Lad Crag with the long lens. The mist was moving in and out all day but the light didn't last long.

One of those subjects which clearly shouts out to be photographed. It is then up to the photographer as to the best way of doing so based upon the conditions and lighting of the time. Here I chose a wide angle lens to incorporate and emphasise the foreground rocks which add a lead in line to the main subject. The orange leaves add interest to the foreground while I carefully positioned the main tree in the frame to slightly overhang but not obscure the two distant trees on the far bank of Rydal Water.

It is a rare occasion that the Palatinate Forest, which borders the western edge of the Rhine plain, is covered in snow. I was lucky enough to capture one of these magical sights with my camera.
A day later, the snow had already melted away again.

Es ist sehr selten, dass der Pfälzerwald, der den westlichen Rand der Rheinebene begrenzt, einschneit. Ich hatte das Glück, einen dieser magischen Momente mit meiner Kamera einzufangen. Einen Tag später war der Schnee schon wieder weggetaut.
