I know, I should be getting down to some work. But when this appears out your window you’re bound to be distracted.
I originally was going to shoot just a section of the sky for the files (in case I ever need to ‘insert’ a sky into a under-dramatic photo) but the whole thing opened up into something quite wonderful in its own right. It is still stunning now the sun has sunk further and the lights on the hill have come up.
It may be cold, but the frosted landscape, low sun and clear blue skies have made things pretty magical these last few days.
Happy New Year.
For the record, I shot this hanging the camera out of the window using LiveView to get over the telephone wire. I took four separate shots with the 50mm and stitched them to make a single panorama.
