    There is something about an open gate that just beckons you on. Love the distant light and the frost is beautiful and makes it all look surreal! Dee

  • Simon Hathaway

    Simon Hathaway

    Thanks Diane. I feel that the opening in the gate is essential to the image and has meaning too. I waited until the light was just highlighting the back of the image. Didn’t notice how cold I was until after I had packed everything away!

    Beautiful image!
    The light seals the deal and I agree with Diane about the gate.
