Sticking with the mono tree theme... These trees are perched atop a rapidly eroding clifftop on a rather desolate stretch of the Suffolk coastline. On my last visit there were three trees that looked like they'd been sculpted by the wind, but they seem to have sadly succumbed to the recent storms.

Amazing how a bit of fog changes a view.
If you are interested in using this image, please do get in touch! :)
Who needs a wide aperture lens to create background blur? LOL! Mist and fog do a good job at this! :-D
The sun had set before the mist rolled in and the light was rapidly fading. The blue tone is very close to how it actually looked.

The decrepit Hepworths works in the lovely Loxley Valley where Bovis want to build a "township" which will ruin the valley (and be liabile to flooding). Rant......
Surreal sunset in Kazakhstan's steppes just north of the Caspian Sea. (same as BW version but I like both :))
Okay, so I uploaded something similar last night, but after I did, I wasn't sure that I liked how I did the boarder, so I uploaded this version thinking it might be more pleasing, but again, I'm not all that sure. So, there. Whatever.
Cold, wind and clouds for today....ever hopeful that the sun would burn through for some drama.....onward goes the search.

I've been told this place was once the Victor Mill.. I believe it burned down several years ago. It's out in Greer past highway 14. I've always found the place to be haunting and alluring at the same time. About a 15 minute exposure.
They said they did it for the best. I say, they learned their lesson now. The world has learned the hard way about nuclear warfare.

Walking the Desolation Trail in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, the Big Island of Hawai’i, USA.
The Big Island of Hawai'i is all about volcanoes. The island is comprised of five relatively young ones, the oldest of which erupted about 60,000 years ago. Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park (HVNP) houses two active volcanoes: Kilauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, and Mauna Loa, the world’s most massive volcano. The most recent, & still current, eruption was of Kilauea in January of 1983, and eruption that has added about 75 acres of new land to the island via lava flows.
The Kilauea lki crater, one of the park’s main attractions, was the scene of a dramatic eruption of a Kilauea vent in November 1959. The eruption lasted for 5 weeks & laid to waste to this part of the park, now known as the Desolation Trail.

This house is in Pipestone County,MN to the south of the road. The ghostlyness of the place become almost unbearable in the wintery fog. It is no better in the summer.
