Snow Joke

I was out on the Malvern Hills earlier today and made a few images - the image above is probably my favourite. Its of North Hill to the right of the image and the Sugarloaf, lower and to the left, taken on the climb up to The Beacon.

I've written previously about my approach to images formats, which is fairly inflexible. Its pretty much 3:2 all the way with me. However, this image is faux-panoramic in that I've cropped it to a 2:1 aspect ratio, removing a great expanse of dull, grey sky.

There are a few more which are in the same format and with a similar treatment, below. This next one is different framing of the same view.

The same scene again, made at the top of The Beacon:

The one has some people in it:

And this final one was made on the way down:

Upton Top Ranking

Some images from a recent visit to Upton-upon-Severn, where the river had burst its banks. I have made similar images in the past, which were probably better than these, but here they are anyway.

The Missing Link

North Hill from Link Common, looking quite Nordic, or Alpine, even. 

Sun In An Empty Room

 This is one of those images of which I'm completely unconvinced as to its value. 

So, I'll limit myself to saying that it was made in our flat in Malvern a few weeks ago, that the window is West facing and that the room isn't actually empty.

Oh, and a Happy New Year.
