My landscape from our field trip to Roundhay Park. This is a view through the trees to the upper lake taken at f11, ISO 100 at 1/60th second. I used flash to illuminate the vegetation in the foreground, just picking out the flowering and whispy long grass. In some ways the view is unremarkable but I like its tranquility, gentle tones and the reflection of the summer's day clear blue sky in the lake. The framing of the lake between the two young trees I hope adds interest to the scene and value to the photo. The original has only lightly been re-touched. I would have it as my desktop during the winter months to keep my spirits up during the short cold dark and depressing days of January and February.
Another nice shot. There is so much going on in this picture yet it is quite simple in its arrangement. I particularly like where the foreground meets the water.
