Some George Stubbs in the evening light. I fed them a carrot each for all their hard work, which at first they didn't seem to know how to eat.

They probably don't know which hoofs to use for the knife & fork.

Ha, they were confused by the crunchiness, but got the hang of it.

Trying to show just how windy it was on the clifftop yesterday...

Creative-ish flower. Because gentians are so deep, I've never got a satisfactory one with enough depth-of-field. I had just enough distance/angle on this one to use a longish lens, and bingo.
The second one isn't quite as good IMO, but it does get the frilly centre bit in the sun

No mistiness here to play with... 30% humidity, and analytical light.
Hard to tell on this screen but, intentional movement blur giving the ethereal look?
I was thinking of doing something similar in the high winds but have been too busy to get the camera out.

The sharpness of the twigs would suggest otherwise... but maybe vintage lenses? Or just an artful eye...

It looks sharp enough on the original with no motion blur. That's the problem uploading them here, all detail gets blurry/soft (only 404Kb) especially with low contrast shots. I did try to get close to some ferns as a foreground, but there was too much movement in those with the shutter speed I had.
I think the green looks a tad yellow in the middle. Might do a colour tweak. ( Done. Desaturated it slightly)

It was more the background leaves that made me query, but evidently not. 😉
Still, something to consider with something sharp and motionless (the first trees in this instance as an example) for context.

This is the other one I quite like, making use of proper HDR. Obviously a quite different feel from WoW's misty shades, this was high contrast.

It's a bit blowy out, so I sought out some ground hugging flowers.
