Longhill, New Covert in black and white by seanoneill

Longhill, New Covert in black and white

One of my favourite local photo locations.

Taken during April on a day when the sky and clouds were just perfect. So perfect that I drove past on my way home from work, came home, fetched my camera and went back!

The observant among you may notice a new extended name for the place. I bought myself a very detailed map of the area, and this place is labelled as Longhill, New Covert.

I have several different shots which I will put up in the days ahead. You may even see a flash of colour!

Colour version in my 2nd album.

Nice viewed large to show the roll and textures of the hillside.
Stunning !!

Wonderful depth to those clouds, I like the isolated feel of the photo Sean, and brilliantly processed as always....

Wonderfull b&w, which I am a fan of, but the color version is outstanding.

This is just beautiful! I stopped by a hill locally to get a shot of a huge (and I mean enormous) hose-reel at the top, thinking it felt a bit like this, but it was flat and boring - this is stunning!
