As it snowed on Brinscall Moor

[chorleyjeff]

Went for a walk from Brinscall up onto the moorland. Picture taken as it snowed.

Hope the upload works.

Good to see you posting again, Jeff.
That's a nicely composed image with lots of strong leading lines.  I like the how the contrast on the trees lowers as the view recedes into the distance due to the snow in the air.

It is a great photograph, as Hatter say's good lines and composition...and this taken today? cloudy here but mild down here in Southern Softyland

Hi Jeff ... good to see you back ... That is a very atmospheric image ...  looks flippin' cold and quite remote ... i  hope  you had a hip flask handy  to warm you up ...   or maybe not if you had to drive there eh ...

I'm glad we missed that down here in the lowlands.  Looks decidedly chilly.  Nice atmospheric shot.

Thanks.

 Blue sky and fluffy clouds not needed

Taken some weeks ago on edge of West Pennine Moors at about 800ft elevation. It was raining in the valley so I walked up to the snow - could not resist even though not dressed for snow.

I saw snow on the Moors and felt an urge to take snow pictures in a location I know. I was not dressed for snow  with ordinary shoes and no gloves. Soon had wet feet and get very very cold hands. Retreated into Brinscall Plantation for some snowy woodland shots. Will post them later

Terrific image: good lead lines; interesting main object, and the feint tree in the BG adding depth.

An interesting use of a square crop, which works well. I remember something similar happening in the hills around where I live in Accrington.

Lovely shot
