Breaking away from themes and b&w today and trying out Manual mode. This morning as I was feeding the hens and walking the dog the sun was rising in the East so got the tripod out and played around with manual mode and this is what I took. Notice the graininess of the result that is because the ISO was set at 1600 the other setting were aperture F22 shutter speed 1/100 sec. Its not great but I its a learning curve and it has not been doctored. There was a bit of a frost as well. Take a look at my TakeTwo album because when I arrived home from work the sun was setting in the West so I had another go on manual.
