Field Notes
When the rain and cloud comes in, it really comes in up in Cumbria's Lake District. Not to be put off, I went for a walk around Derwent Water and found the soft light and low cloud to my liking. It offers a different colour palette to the more classic light and clouds we often seek for photogrpahy here. This little islet, with a nicely shaped tree, provided a perfect focal point within an otherwsie flat, calm and serene view of the lake. My vomposition was designed to capture the bands of tonality in the cloud/mist and make it symentrical around the focal point.
