Dorset Landscape Photography
A study of electricity
Or to be more precise, electricity pylons.
This week saw the return of mists to the West Dorset valleys, the first for quite some time. It was forecast to be good around Bridport, so I had planned to head off to Colmers Hill, one of the great local landmarks, but on the morning there was little in way of mist at all. Very disappointing, but instead I headed off to the area around Coneys Castle, Lamberts Castle & Fishponds Bottom ..... always gets a laugh.
The mist was lying off in the distance, in the middle of the Marshwood Vale, so I decided it was going to be a morning of 'Pylons in the Mist' .... one of my pet subjects.
The landscape, some would say, has been spoilt by these pylons but I like to use them and show the landscape can still be beautiful even with them running across the valley floor.
It was a lovely morning and one that set me up for the following day ... see my later blog post. There is something very satisfying about getting up so early and seeing what so many others dont, the glorious start to a new day!
