Meet me at the Lakeside
And so I wait.
Standing at the lakeside, waiting for the promise to be fulfilled…
“Meet me at the lakeside when the snow has fallen” she whispered softly into my ear.
So, here I am. Standing… waiting as memories of her gentle breath against my cheek warm my very soul. They said the sun would shine today, but instead I danced in the snow.
And so I wait.

A very atmospheric shot Paul. I love the subtle tones and the tint of blue in the shot (Or is that just my eyes :D)
Nice work
Paul Tupman replied
Thanks Alan… and yes there is some blue in there that you can see, as well as a whole host of other colours as this was actually shot in colour… and no desaturation in PP!
Mel Brackstone
Wow Paul, this is a very atmospheric image! The detail in those trees with their snow tipped branches is just beautiful!
Paul Tupman replied
Thanks so much Mel… I really appreciate that! We were lucky to arrive at this location just as some fresh snow had fallen and still clinging to the trees.
Matt Hurrell

Atmospheric indeed! Great use of stark cold foreground contrasting with the misty white background!
Paul Tupman replied
Thanks Mark… I loved the look of the fresh snow as it began melting on the watery ice.
