It was a case of positioning myself to get that perspective. I got a little damp doing so, and couldn't quite get the road out of the picture even then.

Worth the effort, I think - and cloning out the road shouldn't be too tricky, if you can be bothered.

A tree inspired by sign language.

Finally!!! A landscape worthy of Russ' attention! ;D

Sorry, did not notice you are (relatively) new here. That was kind of an inside joke among older members. We have our friend Russ (posts as RSL), who believes that most landscapes are not worth much unless they contain a "hand of man," i.e., a sign of human presence: a house, road, farm, etc. Well, your photograph couldn't be a better example of a "hand of man" in landscape. :)

Beautiful patterns and atmosphere. Just a tad over-sharpened.

Excellent, I wish I had taken it. Not even sure you could make it better.

Don't know if this quite works as intended, but I thought it was mildly funny when I saw this scene: Envy

Taken back in the summer. Must have been a Wednesday afternoon. It rained the day after summer & has been raining pretty much ever since.

This is on Burrow Mump, on the Somerset Levels (aka Sedgemoor), very prone to flooding. A few hills dot the landscape, and two of them, Glastonbury Tor & Burrow Mump, have ruined chapels dedicated to St Michael on their tops.

Did you eat any of them?  I have a lot of them around my place, but they're way too tannic to enjoy, no matter how ripe they get.

They are sweet, if messy, when ripe and the birds get their share.  It may be a grafted tree; new growth from the roots is not so good.  The photo was taken standing on the roof of one story.

The shadows seems a little blocked up, but I`m sure that`s just the .jpg.  Other than that it looks very good!!
