Solitude

So much to do and so little time to do it, even if there wasn't, the weather has been very poor here over the last couple of weeks. So been going through some of my pics, don't think I have uploaded this before but either way I have reprocessed it. I have quite a few that I have never wanted to bin, this being one of them.







It was taken with a 300d and sigma 28-200???
Thanks.
Ken.

I like the pic. I find a lot of your stuff a bit "busy", Ken, but I like the simplicity of this one.

Love the simplicity of the shot, the composition, and the contrast between the colours.

I actually liked the pic better when I thought it was water. Had a "last place on earth" feel about it...

I thought that, although I was tempted to cut and paste in a different place. The only thing stopping me was I wasn't sure where else to put it.

I think it's a super shot Ken.................but, my brain is confused as to whether the cow byre is sitting on the front hillock or the moors behind. Oh...and I don't know where people get water from They're clearly not from Gods' Chosen Land

I shot this from atleast a field or 2 away and from a much lower vantage point looking up to the building. Which is probably what is causing your confusion.
