WinterWaterfall somewhere in Wales - probably Snowdonia! Shot on Nikon FE2 with 35mm f2.8 lens, Benbo MK1 tripod - Fuji Neopan 400asa developed in Rodinal around 1990. Wish I had shot more slides in those days but hey ho!

Pleasant bimble round Stapleford Wood this morning - all the more so as the ground's still good and solid...

She tells her love while half asleep,
In the dark hours,
With half-words whispered low:
As Earth turns in her winter sleep
And puts out grass and flowers
Despite the snow,
Despite the falling snow.
Robert Graves.

That is a coincidence. I love them both, Mr ff1's is more dystopian. Reminded me a little of a Roger Dean cover, perhaps Relayer.

Snowdon and Crib Goch look particularly good in that...I like the icing sugar, gives great muted colours. Lovely pic.
I think I'm a level or two higher than your vantage point, that little cleft I found is a good frame in two directions.
Hefin from Llanberis posted a nice pic yesterday, you possibly saw it, with snow pastel colours, I think it's from the top of the zig zags. I'm sure he won't mind me posting it here. Fair play to him getting out in it, it was really bloody cold, even well wrapped up.

You should come over post lockdown and bring your camera, happy to show you around.

You are definitely higher up, I'm at the same level as the road access

There's a diagonal path goes up from that level to a level with quite a few ruins. The cleft is round the corner from there.

Not been up that high on that side of the quarry since 2017 when I went across from one side to the other on this level, not sure you can do that now??

Still ok, I think. They have notices at Vivian warning people off, there was a pretty big rockfall last year.Not been up that high on that side of the quarry since 2017 when I went across from one side to the other on this level, not sure you can do that now??

Still working through some old images, trying to apply some of the processing skills I've learnt in the last 4 years (mainly be gentle with those sliders....!), this one from 2017

Looks like today is going to be the last one walking on solid ground for a while - already thawing here in Lincolnshire so the ground will be like soup come tomorrow.

David, that's very effective, but if I could make just one comment, the sky looks unnaturally smooth, at least on the gadget screen I'm using. Have you thought to try some fine scanned film grain from something like Nik, you can run it so fine that it is imperceptible, but I find even then it can make the photo come to life?

I'll have a look at that, the original had quite a bit of high ISO (nasty digital) noise, thanks for the tip
