The Calm before the Storm

Graeme Pettit Photography

The Calm before the Storm

Taken in a local area of what I term Pretty Land which has been a happy hunting ground for me over recent years with the camera – lots of paths, gated roads and easy access, with plenty to look at if you can be bothered to take the time – The nearest village is Mowsley.

Most folk miss this area by driving straight through the main road from Market Harborough to Lutterworth, yet either side of them are some of the most wonderful vistas in Leicestershire to photograph in the main light of day as opposed to early or late starts – but you do need a good old out of date OS map to find some of the paths and roads (and more ground clearance than I have under my car for some of them!)

    Beautiful lighting here Graeme. It really is splashed across the landscape so nicely in stripes and the cows seem to be enjoying the few moments that they are bathed in it. Landscapes can work so well sometimes in portrait mode and this is a classic example of this.

    Poetic Landscape. I like the contrast of color and the vertical format works well with this composition. Nice Work!
