A Dovestones story

Awesome reflections Herb.

Thanks a lot Jaap. A favourite one here, for me and some of my followers. Already three years old but still has a fresh look to it. Today, as I walked near here it was almost half empty.

Best Wishes, Herb

A very pleasing shot Herb, perfect reflections and a good composition (as usual)

Cheers Nick - you will have seen such views from my collection of this spot before but it is always nice to share again.

Regards, Herb

Another superb image Herb - beautifully composed with wonderful reflections. A magnificent winter landscape image.

Thanks Keith. Very happy you like this one. I thought a little Winter might cool us down from this hot Summer a little.

Cheers, Herb

just nothing like still black water, crisp shot.

You're so right there Steve. The crispness to this looks good still. Glad you enjoyed it.

Regards, Herb

Lovely deep blue set off by the snow and the golden grass, a fabuous shot!! If only winter always were like this:-)

You are right my friend. In reality, the normal Winter weather here is constant grey skies, cool and wet. In short nothing like this -but when it happens it happens! Glad you like it.

Eine schöne Landschaft die in mir Appetit auf Urlaub macht.
Schöne Komposition und eine tolle Spiegelung!

Thank you Rainer - yes a landscape in the best of tradition. My local walking area can be a perfect destination in conditions like this, unfortunately, these conditions rarely happen.

Regards, Herbert

If it weren't for the snow you never would say it's Winter, with these colours. Beautiful reflection.

Winter at its best Daniela. I would imagine that your mountain area's have more chances of this kind of lighting than ours. Glad that you enjoyed my walking spot.

Cheers, Herb

Yes, if the weather is good you can find this kind of lighting. but you need to go at a certain height.

Perfect reflection, and wonderful composition!!

Best wishes

Füßun, you see here now that I have been taking such photos for a long time. This is another of my local Dovestones reservoir - just lately surrounded by moor-fires and now almost empty due to the current drought!

Regards, Herb

Preciosa composición.

Thank you so much for this visit and comment Marije.

Best Wishes, Herbert

Don't you just love it when the weather allows a reflection like this!! Really superb couple of pictures Herb. Cheers, Rosa.

Hi Rosa, in our current hot weather and drought, this shot seems most refreshing. Happy that more of my scenes appeal to you.

Cheers, Herb

A stunning image Herb. Serenely beautiful. No wonder it is a favourite of yours. Have a lovely weekend

Just up the road, so to speak Carol -15mins by car, 30 by local bus. A firm favourite where I have taken perhaps thousands of photos in the 50 years I have had a decent camera. A great place in all seasons especially Winters like this or misty golden Autumns.
Have a great weekend too, Herb

...just outstanding photos, Herb. Also those, where I only left a silent star

Your high praise means a lot to me Lutz. My thanks extended! ~ Herb

The perfect mirroring! Great shot!
