Sky over Highton

Lovely crisp winter's day with a slight mist and some sunshine. I was trying out a borrowed lens by taking a bunch of various subjects - with greater and lesser degrees of success. I thought this one worked out OK.

It looks very like the ridge that our house is built, taken on the other side of the valley! If I got outside and yelled, will you hear me?
Nice definitions!

[Babs]

What a great view. I would love to see a close up of the two chimneys in this shot. Do you know what the buildings are?

[Annie D]

Great view...love the clouds

[Marnie]

@maggiemae Give us a yell and we'll see, or may more likely (?) hear.

[Marnie]

@annied Fabulous morning.

[Marnie]

@onewing Yep, and I've posted shots of at least one of 'em previously. The Barwon has a bunch of lovely old red-brick chimneys along, or near the banks.

[Diana]

Lovely view and beautiful cloudsape.

[Babs]

@golftragic I remember your chimney posts before and wondered if either of these had been previously photographed by you. I love chimneys

[Casablanca]

That chimney draws my attention. Just saw you said there are lots in this area along the river. How wonderful.

[Graeme Stevens]

nicely processed, especially on black

[haskar]

Great view and lovely processing.

[FBailey]

I'm looking at this on my phone right now and it shows up plenty of detail, love the clouds. How powerful is it?

[marlboromaam (Mags)]

Beautiful view and black and white!

[Merrelyn]

Love those clouds.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Nice scenic view- the black and white does a great job of putting some drama into the shot. Good shot!

[summerfield]

marnieeeeeeeeee!

can you hear me? 🤣 love those clouds. i have so many things playing in my head with this picture. may i please borrow it sometime?

[Jane Pittenger]

Wonderful clouds

[Marnie]

@ludwigsdiana @graemestevens @haskar @marlboromaam @merrelyn @jgpittenger Many thanks everyone.

[Marnie]

@casablanca Yep, around a dozen I think, all left over from when Geelong had lots of manufacturing industry, especially woollen textiles and related industries

[Marnie]

@fbailey The photo or the weather? I jazzed up the contrast in the photo though the weather didn't produce any problems.

[Marnie]

@olivetreeann Thanks Ann.

[Marnie]

@summerfield Yes, of course you can Vikki, always happy to share.

[FBailey]

@golftragic I meant the lens on loan:)

[Marnie]

@fbailey Ooops, sorry to be a dumbo. It's a Fujinon 60mm f 2.4 and is fun to use. I'm enjoying the loan, but won't be buying one, I have too many lenses already and mostly use my favourites.

[Rob Z]

It shows so much detail over such a wide area!

[Marnie]

@robz We're so lucky to live where we do.
