Winter Wilderness

bleak photograph of a wall in winter in the wilderness of Clowbridge Reservoir, Rossendale

"Winter Wilderness" is a rather bleak shot taken on the Rossendale moors on the outskirts of Clowbridge Reservoir. Although it was taken around midday, it actually has a feel of late afternoon.  Shortly after the photograph was taken the weather took a turn for the worse and more snow fell.  Kieran and his trusty camera made it home just in time!

Winter Turbines

wind turbines over Burnley

These wind turbines on the moors above Burnley in Lancashire can just about been seen on the horizon.  There seems to be a lot of sky in this shot and I wondered whether it would have been better to crop some of it out to add more focus?  Please let us have your suggestions.
