Misty Mornings, Golden Grass and Blue Skies Overhead — Lens-Artists Challenge #167

·

Hi All 👋 My entry for this week’s #LAPC, set by Amy. This is also my entry for Terri’s Sunday Stills, Cee’s Mid-Week Madness Challenge, & Heyjude’s Life in Colour.

The leaves haven’t really started to change that much yet, but we are seeing a marked drop in temperatures, with mist & low clouds prevalent in the mornings & clear blue skies above.

Low cloud in the Forth Clyde Valley

In the deep blue above, fly squadrons of geese on their way home to warmer climes.

The canals & moorlands are all a golden mass of dried grass & bracken. The golden hue is further accentuated by the low autumn sun blazing through the mist.

Without the haze of summer, the world above the clouds is sharper. And of course, Lensy had to come out to play.

    GREAT photos. I have one of those lens balls and really need to take time to use it more. I’m just not very confident with it.

      It’s taken me a year & a half of perseverance to get to know what Lensy likes & doesn’t. Landscapes, Cityscapes & geometric designs area definite yes. I always look for somewhere to sit him so I have both hands free to operate the camera & really dial in the focus. Definitely worth the time & effort
