Well composed, Al, no shortage of lead in rocks up there!! The movement in the grass I do like. Was it really that colour?

Thanks Dave, those handy rocks again The colour of the grass is as seen, I was surprised at the difference between the this shots and one where there was no wind. The short grass and longer stems are green but the seed heads are a pale orange and when the wind blows them they colour the scene. I think the warm sunrise light also helps.


Quote: Wonderful image.
Did you use filters to control light on your 5sec exposure?
even if you've saturated the grass, i think it's very effective
and gives a feeling of a painting.

Thank you Kate, I used a 0.6ND grad for the sky and a 1.2 ND to allow the longer exposure to capture the grass movement!
