    My new playground...

    Yesterday afternoon I explored a new area and went back up there this morning... I reversed down a small ditch and had to ask a passing farmer for a winch/tow out of it, he kindly obliged

    There are so many locations I want to explore further/shoot so this is where my time will be spent over the next few months:

    That's a beauty, Matt. My compliments.

    I'm not one for altering things very much by way of cloning (although I have taken the occasional power wire out), but I wonder about taking out those pin-pricks of light, particularly those few just left of centre.

    Looks beautiful, at first glance I thought it was the sea. Look forward to seeing more photos from here

    Thank you Donald, and I see the ones you mean and agree. I didn't notice them to be honest... a bit weary

    Great one Matt, I look forward to seeing more from this location.

    It has to be viewed at full size at the link given to fully appreciate it.

    allow me to raise the issue once more and then i will be silent. Your watermark is too big and too bright. For me it really messes with the image. Sorry.

    Great composition, Matt, and I love the colours. I think I would want to spend a lot of time exploring that place, too.

    If you just scroll up a bit you can cut off the bottom of the image with the watermark in, nothing much to see there anyway

    Nice playground...I hope you do not lose sleep over this scene working it over and over each night on how to shoot it. There seems to be a lot of photo - op in that part of your pond.
