This is my final post before Christmas and New Year, when I will be taking a break. I had hoped to share some breathtaking frozen landscape photos, but unfortunately, I haven’t had the opportunity to venture out with my camera. More importantly, we haven’t had any real frost. December has been a complete washout here, … Continue reading December Landscape Photography: From Rain to Frost
Last week, I was away in the Lake District. I find the end of autumn and the start of winter a great time for photography.

I shot this image in the Lake District back in early November. It was actually the first snowfall of the winter and light was spectacular for most of the day.
