Dickensian!

Had to push myself to go out today - thick fog and very cold. Fog changes the landscape, making benign scenes look quite sinister. This reminded me of something from Dickens!

[HTGT]

Yes can sure see what you mean! Certainly got a wonderful atmosphere to it.

[Claude Trew]

Very atmospheric with the mist.

[Shepherdman]

Nice wintery shot

[Trevor]

Well done for getting out. It was worth it. I love scenes like this, so easy to get carried away and spend a bunch of time there. I can just imagine being there.

[Anne]

@trevjk3 Thank you Trevor. It was worth it and spent longer there than I was planning and didn't see a soul!

[Catherine]

@cmp Thank you. Part of its beauty was the stillness and quietness that fog creates. Thank you for the fav too.

[Catherine]

@365anne Thank you - all looks a bit beaten down, but come the spring it will all come to life!

@milaniet Thank you! Only through the camera did it look Dickensian - not really when you see the whole place and they say the camera never lies!!

[Catherine]

[Catherine]

@suesouthwood Isn't it and yet we both know it is in the wrong area!!

[Catherine]

[Photo Bird]

Just remembered what this image puts me in mind of - an old Ralph McTell LP/CD cover 'Easy'. If you've got time have a look on line and see what you think!
