November Mist in Arkesden

Image
I seem to have taken a long holiday from posting anything on my blog, so a pre New Year resolution I hope will put me back on track again. Last week saw some fog in Arkesden as the weather changed from cold to damp and mild, a typical November day. The trees looked mysterious in the gloom and the skeletons of plants stood out from the mist.

A harvest walk

A few pictures from a walk through the fields in Arkesden a couple of weeks ago. The tractor had started to cut the fields but the threat of rain was hanging in the sky. I ended up at our local fishing lake.

Getting used to the Sony - in Arkesden and Thaxted

Image
In August the weather was good and harvesting had begun. Here are some pictures of the fields round my house taken with the new Sony, still without a dedicated lens but using my Nikon lenses and an adaptor. I have photographed this scene a number of times before but the light is always different. I also took the camera to Thaxted where by way of a contrast I produced these monochrome pictures. The dynamic range of the Sony A7R11 is well able to cope with difficult lighting conditions.
