We seem so exposed up here it whispers quietly to its neighbour. Those pines below us look so much safer, they have the sun longer than us, and than big mountain stands over us like a big cloud most of the day. Stick with me kid we’ll be OK, Ol’ Sheffield will watch over us, grow closer we’ll be ok together. Nervously it leans in, slowly they get closer. As the years pass hundreds of larches are planted higher and higher until they cover the hill behind and the pine feels less exposed but still envious of those pines down the intake wall, closer to the valley bottom. Then comes the winter of the bad storms, from November to February storm force wind hit the fells. The cracking and crashing starts above with larch upon larch fall to the ground, as frightened as the pines are they perceive to be bending less than their kin below, the mountain indeed was shielding them from the worst. However below they were direct line as the winds ripped over the col and hugs the side of the mountain following the contours of the descending valley. Pine after noble pine are felled, many taking the wall with the roots they hoped it would protect. And after each storm dies the fallen count gets higher, many decades to grow, moments to fall. Eventually the days get longer and the winds get lighter. We’re still standing kid I told you we would be OK, as the mountain casts it shadow for another day, and their crowns, which are now one catch the last light of the day.
The dreamland in my mind
so long sought
found in a real day "dream"
like a sanctuary of grace
lit by a magical sunlight
upon this very true genuxflexion.

Taken during one off my 1on1 workshops at liege.
Interrested for a full day fine art streetphotography workshop, with afterwards a online meeting discussing the pictures made during the day and editing tips?

Work took me up to Defiance, Ohio today and I happened upon the ND&W switching the Johns-Manville plant. No, I am not the one leaning...
The majority of my street images are taken at 35mm (crop sensor), but for this scene, to maximise the effects of the light and geometry of the building, I went wide...
sometimes you just need to hear this,and that's make your day ^^

I have a few photos of this barn. I find it very interesting in that it's an unusual shape for this area, and it's weathered boards and surrounding trees create inviting lines. I couldn't get very close, due to cows and fences.

These narrow-fronted gabled buildings along the canals in Amsterdam all seem to be leaning upon each other. Taxes were levied based on the width of the building, so they went up instead of out !
One from a couple of years ago that I'd neglected to upload.
The magenta of the stream bed is due to the clay.
