Wending her way

The back gate to King's College takes you on to a winding path. The Gates were closed today but you can get a nice view from across a little stream. You used to be able to climb around the back gate when it was locked at night (I did id with a large yucca plant once) but the spoil sports have removed the necessary ledge.
wow... is this for real??? love it all about it!!! fab and fav...

would mind sharing how you have accomplished such a marvellous result? much appreciated.

Such a great mood in this picture! Love it!

@carrapeta00 Thank you very much! It was a foggy day for starters then I added some Cross process in Picnik (faded out a bit), followed by Ortonish (full strength) and then I increased the shadows a bit. I think that's right I played about a bit and I'm trying to remember if this version had the cross process on but I think it did.

lovely colours and mood here - and yes, I remember climbing in and out of the most amazing places - I could never quite reach to climb along the outside of the modern halls of residence at Imperial, 5'2" has its disadvantages
January 29th, 2012  
@shanne True but all the best people are 5'2"!
January 29th, 2012  
This is wonderful!
January 29th, 2012  
Fantastic photo and brilliant processing. Fav . (I'm 5'1-1/2 so not quite the best but close).
January 29th, 2012  
I agree - I love the processing - that intense green is amazing.
By the way the farmer's market in St. Neot's is on every 2nd and 4th Saturday. There weren't too many stalls this week, (fish from Grimsby, smoked goods, W.I., veg., meat, Indian sauces etc and bread.) it's better later in the year. Give me a shout if you're coming and we'll meet for a coffee?

@busylady Will do indeed!! Thanks for the tip on days - it will probably have to be after Easter when the hockey season ends which could be a good time for bedding plants as well maybe?! The smoked goods sound tempting!

@meisen325 Close enough!

You have created a great atmospheric shot. Love the person entering the misty area. (I am also 5ft 1-1/2, so hopefully am in with a chance)!
