So, I wake up this morning, LOADS of snow... But I was too cold and too tired, so I went back to bed. Mistake.

By the time I got up again, the snow was mostly gone :(

Still managed to get a few snaps though :





 


Oh, and at one point I was also assaulted by a herd of sheep (and 4 rams) - here's a shot of one of said rams bounding toward me. Thank god their horns were cut off, is all I can say - because even their bare skulls hurt like hell!

The sun was only popping out for short bursts, so I had to compose and set up the shots, then hop around trying to keep warm for 10-20 mins waiting for the sun to shine :o

I wasn't fussed by the horde of sheep running at me, till they started nibbling // headbutting me :(
 
The 1st one is awesome m8 i love it.

Rolf @ the angry rams :p
Great shot but i really did LoL at that one as its just the sort of thing that would happen to me !


Keep up the good work :-)
 
2 & 3 are Infra Red, as mentioned in the dA comments. The others are all "normal"
To be honest I think 2 & 3 would have looked better with visible light.
2 is unnecesarily soft (especially the bottom of the frame, that's why it's cropped) and 3 just isn't gaining anything from the IR. The only "advantage" is a slightly more dramatic sky, not that it shows much really.

That said, I've taken to trying out just about everything in IR. I'm finding that it works well in many situations other than the "landscape with green foliage" one.

Cheers for the positive feedback :)
 
I like the Snowy Hills shot, feels nicely balanced even though the sky is dark on the left - good work all round. Very envious, had precisely b&gger all snow here, but when I drove over to Manchester yesterday it was gorgeous - blue sky and snow. Did I have my camera with me? NO!! Grrrr...:)
