Lister Park

My entry in the black and white landscape challenge
a view across Sibden Hall boating lake near Halifax West Yorkshire not Lister Park
A gorgeous image which suits b&w.

wonderful PoV, that lake appears to go on forever. loving the detail - right to the pylons on the hillside.. great reflections and super processing too.. in my book it's a winner :-)

@jorlam Thank you for your lovely comments they are much appreciated, I don't need to tell you what an awful grey day its been not really suitable for landscape photography with no definition at all in the sky:)

@pcoulson it looks like the gloom is here for the next few days too.. no wonder us Brits talk incessantly about the weather.. i stayed indoors, it's warmer and much more colourful, lol.
this image reminds me of Shibden Hall in Halifax..

@rosiekind Thank you so much Rosie, Ansel Adams monochrome landscape images of Yosemite National Park was what first ignited my interest in photography as a 10 year old boy:)

@jorlam OMG your absolutely right its the boating lake at Sibden Hall only spent all morning there today so why did I call it Lister Park, at least I got the near Halifax part correct, many thanks for putting me straight:)

You not only managed a great black and white image here, Peter, but you also captured a sense of calm and serenity. Ansel would be proud.

@pcoulson Peter i wasn't 'putting you right'.. i've never been to Lister Park so was non the wiser.. just remarking of similarities...

wrong name does nothing to detract from a fine image though..
