Light n shadow (IR 510nm)

Just a simple snapshot, I presume the framing etc. makes this very apparent. I was on a long hike on the weekend, super hot, I only carried IR gear (for panoramas).

 

This was already on my way back / down, I snapped a few single frames. It amazes me how defined the transition between light and shadow due to cloud coverage sometimes is, it's just a few meters that divide full sunshine and proper overcast! I guess it helps being on a mountain, but I've seen this in the valley too at times.

 

It was nice to see the cattle so peaceful, just chilling in the sun / wind in the afternoon next to the pond with light and shadow moving over everything, some were even nodding. But they are also feisty up there, when cows feel the need to protect their calfs, they will do so!, but it's usually enough to keep an eye on that to avoid situations. Usually tourists that get whopped unfortunately.
