    Well done Nick & Marley - a very close call!

    There were some really excellent shots posted over the winter and I found it very difficult whittling them down.

    Many thanks Paul.Much appreciated.

    It was taken from our front step. I took 23 shots varying the exposure and trying to get one that satisfied me. The light and mist were changing all the time and I had to work fast.
