my view of the natural world

Remembering…..

At forest's edge.jpg2

A funny co-incidence…..   tonight I happened to decide to convert the original coloured version of this to black and white, and then discovered I’d taken it exactly one year ago.  My how things have changed since then……I still have access to paddocks with cattle, but many miles from where this was taken and with very different vegetation.

I’m quite fond of the original image, both because of remembering the circumstances of taking it, and how thrilled I was at the time, and also because I’ve sold two copies of it, and it’s received a competition award.  Perhaps people will like the black and white version also :-)

  2. a stunning image! it is funny how life can change so drastically in just one year. Adaptation is a most important quality that I know you must have a lot of. :-)

  3. This is a wonderful image. I’m not sure I saw the original (I think I did), but this one creates an entirely different mood now. Mysterious. You did a great job of converting it to b&w.

  4. Enivea, This is a beautiful image either in colour or black and white. I am sure you spent some time reflecting on the memories it triggered.

      Many thanks Margaret. Yes, Fred and I spent many a happy morning tramping that area, and playing with the cattle too.
