Hello Les,
You are obviously an early and there's certainly something to be said for getting up early to enjoy a view like this! I like the point of view looking through the stand of trees and, more especially, the beautiful soft light and tones. Happy Easter to you and Gladys.

Wonderful landscape. The mists turn the background very beautiful, without obstructing the lines. The colors are great, too. Very good work, congratulations!

Hi Leslie!
Great atmosphere here! And what a landscape! I really like the effect of the mist covering the trees. And the light reflecting on these ones in foreground is just great!I'm not sure about what's that on the lower part of the fence, seems like leaves to me, but it's a good detail!

Bonsoir Leslie,
C'est un paysage de rêve, et la composition est superbe avec les arbres au premier plan. Le brouillard crée la magie avec cette belle profondeur.

Leslie,
The early bird catches the worm, lovely early morning picture.
Your pictures of Devon would do well in a calendar.
All the best

Hello Leslie - A soft and pretty watercolour with a lovely pastel "washed" BG showing mist in the low-lying areas and dew-drentched fields. I love the sunlight illuminating the FG with warm light. Is that lambs' wool clinging to the fence? So English! A special landscape heralding a special day. TFS best wishes Rosemary

Hello Leslie,

I cannot help feeling that this is like the work of a landscape artist. Certainly your early morning photography has paid fine dividends.
The trees anchor the f/g in the early morning sun, whilst beyond them, the mist smoothes and distorts in an incredibly beautiful way.

Did you get any other views on this early morning adventure?

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Leslie!

Jolie scène de la campagne bucolique anglaise! J'aime cette brume, qui donne un coté mystérieux et magique à la photo! Joli POV.

Cordialement

Antonio

hello Les,
I have not been on TE as I used to be abd so I am sorry to have missed this very special potograph. Its a beauty!I like the way the solid black of the fg fence posts contrast with the softness beyond.Not only are the fg trees lovely but those further away are dotted across this landcapse in a magical way. The various pastel colours are lovely. There's also a fairy necklace of sheep's wool picked out along the fence wire.I hope you have this printed out and framed.
best egards,
Bev

Bonjour Leslie,
jolie fresque presque peinture, d'un moment exceptionnel de cette journée dans les campagnes. Une gestion des lumières (en post processing sans doute) très efficace pour donner une ambiance inhabituelle.
My best regards.
Daniel.
