Back at the Pond

On another very early morning after another very rough night, I headed back to the pond. I wasn't up to faffing about with making careful compositions using my tripod, so I held my camera over my head and took a few shots. I did this to get above the field foliage that was in the way of the pond at eye level. Holding the camera like that is not conducive to producing tack sharp images, particularly when I was  also shooting at a very slow shutter speed, but I like them well enough regardless. As is often the case they are a bit dark, especially at Blogger size and in low light, but they look good enough at high res on a large monitor.

This ↑ was my favourite shot of the morning. I like this ↓ too but I have previously shown you something similar and a little better. Similar or not, each day and each press of the shutter is not identical to the previous result.

I did take two more photos.

I specifically wanted a fence ↑ for Fence Friday on Flickr, and then ↓ I saw that some clouds stood out well above the treeline for another somewhat different result.
