One of the ponds along the Nature Trail near Ball Grove park in Colne, North-West England. In Spring this area is full of young frogs and Dragonflies (both of which breed here) and various breeds of birds. The Bull-rushes provide a hidden nesting site for ducks, some of which can be seen emerging from them in this scene. The wooden structure is part of a viewing platform which extends into the middle of the pond. Camera: Sony RX100. Processed with Nikon Capture NX2.

If you look at the "Satellite view" the whole pond appears to be coloured Brown....this is caused by the rushes which often cover the whole area.

Lumb Spout is a local "beauty spot" near the village of Trawden in East Lancashire, England. It is popular with hikers and is a great place for a picnic in Summer. Photographed with a Sony RX100 camera and processed with Nikon Capture NX2.

Canada geese photographed at Barrowford reservoir near Colne in Pendle district, North-West England. I had just bought a new Nikkor 200mm f2.8 lens and this is one of the first shots I took with it. The camera I used was my "elderly" Nikon D300s.....an excellent (but, with a combined weight of 2.5kg / 5lbs, very heavy) combination which shows that you don't need lots of megapixels if you use a top-quality lens.....the D300s only has 12.3 megapixels which is quite low by today's standards.

The unofficially-named "Monet" bridge on the campus of York University, UK, photographed a few years ago with one of my first digital cameras, an Olympus AZ-1, which only had a resolution of 3 megapixels The resolution was very low by today's standards but I think the results were quite good (considering the technology available at that time). Processed with Nikon Capture NX2.

Photographed in early Spring at Lake Burwain near the village of Foulridge in the district of Pendle, North-West England, using a Panasonic TZ10 compact camera. Processed with Nikon Capture NX2.
