Taken on a recent visit to Yorkshire with Dan.
Whilst many people moan about dull weather and cloudy skies I quite like an overcast day when I’m out in the countryside like this - perhaps you have to think about taking a different type of shot but I find it adds to the feeling of space and emptiness of this type of environment.
The light is also more diffused, which means that not only can colours be more faithfully reproduced than in direct sunlight but it also makes it possible to capture greater detail on the ground without having to worry as much about blown highlights in the sky.

This shot is was taken one lunch time in Autumn. I’d gone out a few days earlier in search of rich autumnal colours but I didn’t really see anything that I liked. When I found this scene I was intrigued by the light more than the colours and knew it could look really striking in black and white.
Unfortunately it was windy and the end result had some movement in, so I made a note to come back again when conditions were better.
This retaken effort was processed in exactly the same way as the original but fortunately none of the leaves are blurred
