Default light from side to side

light from side to side


light from side to side

Many moons cascade one river, they light from side to side, as we cross in close proximity like rivers our hearts entwine

light from side to side

Be ready now, be ye circle be the central force of life, as the game extends the cycle, be ready to move

Exquisite images, Steve and wonderful light. I like the droplet of water off the bird's beak and the framing of the trees down the country lane.

I agree with Mike completely! Great capture of the water droplet, & fabulous arching of the trees - that road is like a vortex. It looks very Wirral-esque to me! Beautiful lighting in both, and I love the stillness of the water in the first shot.

Beach, a couple of low sun shots. These shots show why shooting either in the early morning or late in the day when the sun is low is the best time! Nice soft lighting, good subject with the right perspective = great shots.
