November Photo Competition

Beautifull pictures.
The ones i send in for the october comp, were the first i'd took since i was 12 yrs old. the family banned me from the camera as i cut off everyones heads or feet.
When i set off to take the oct comp ones it was beautifull sunshine, as i got to the woods it turned dark and cloudy, but the the deadline was near so i took them as i wanted to join in and take part. Trying now to take something for nov comp half decent enought to send in (the subject isn't as easy to capture as it sounds).

 

Final entry:

"Belt of Venus" 22nd. November 05, East Lomond Hill, Fife.

An effect of Earth's shadow causing a steel blue band across the sky with the upper atmosphere still lit by back scattered red light from the setting sun giving the higher pink and violet tones. Dry and frosty with mist forming in the valley floor, conditions were pefect for this shot!

 

Amazing picture!

 

Yes, incredible frogesque.
We're seeing some really lovely pics this month
but still room for more from those of you who haven't posted any yet!

Yep! need more pics everyone.

This is NOT for the comp as I've used my quota but some recent frost and snow should give folk a few late ideas.

Blizzard: 25 November 2005 East Lomond, Fife.
