Well framed wife whippet and daughter

This is a scene from a walk to the Hobbucks area of Arnold. I told my Jane, Claire and Ruby to wait as they were perfectly framed in the trees.

There's separation between the three subjects, which is always good in composition (I cloned Ruby's lead out of the shot to help maintain the separation ) and the trees make a natural frame for the shot.

You can still see some snow lingering around.

Yes, indeed - nicely framed. Looks like a bit of sun too!

[Sue]

Oooh, the snow is going, nice shot!

Flippin snow but lovely framing. I bet they're saying, 'I hope he hurries up with that photo, it's freezing!'

[Juliette Packham]

Nice framing and can't believe you still had snow on the ground. It showed in London today but didn't settle, ridiculous weather,!!!

Pretty darn perfect I'd say 👍 balance separation, light/dark, colours, subject ...& a whippet - very lovely
