Two from my Morning Walk

[Denis]

Across Nazeing Common..

And back through the Hornbeams in Risdens woods....

Very nice, Denis.  I like the way you placed the sun between the branches in both of them.

The Tokina lens is noted for its flare (image 2), so I position myself to cut down on it, the first image was on a Nikon 18-140 but that does not seem to suffer as bad but thought it wise to limit collateral damage...although some like to see flare, my mind is not made up on that. Thanks for taking the trouble to comment.

I love long shadows ... and we get them a lot this time of year if we are lucky enough to see the sun ! We had 4 days of fog   with the sun trying to burn off the early morning haze when I ventured out in the garden a few days ago to capture some of the horses  in the paddock . I rather like the drama of the  sunburst  in the first pic Denis and I think it has added to the  impact   of the image ... I'm not very good  with the sun in front of me I must admit ... and usually move to a position where it's  behind a tree trunk or a building ... lol

I kinda want to see some fog or mist rising in the second one... Imagine that for a splendid place to see!

I haven't made it foggy  ... though  I could  do with  20 minutes  work  ... but this was done just by  hitting a  couple of buttons in the latest version of Photoshop , called Neural Filters . It's just to show you how  you can never always believe what you see nowadays ... it blows my mind really ...

Blimey !  I have a photo of the same woods in wintertime, that not far off the mark at all!

It would take me foreverto learn photoshop, I have enough trouble with lighttroom..and I have had that for years

It is ridiculous isn't it ...... .... 

[Denis]

I rely on processing, albeit i'm not very good at it apparently, but this really makes me question so many photos now. If anyone can do this,why bother going out on a snowy day !

I didn’t even have to put my wellies on for that one  ….
