Such a magical image and for someone like me from the far north (Canada) an unusual occurence! Just love the yelllow light which bathes the whole area in the sun’s subtle glow and the composition is excellent!
Trudi's Images replied
Thanks very much Joanne , l took a huge series of these shots that morning,but when l bought them up on the computer you could hardly see the roo’s, dropping the contrast slightly really helped with the detail, glad you like it :-)

I love this, youve done good editing and the fence, for me, adds the freedom element into it.
Trudi's Images replied
Thank you so very much Ric, this was one of my first shots on my 3.2MP camera,l just had alot of luck that morning,at first all the images were so obscured by the fog l thought l would have to trash them, but just dropping the contrasts a little and some creative PS this is what l was left with, it taught me very early on never to give up on a picture you really want to work !! thanks again and glad you like it :-))
