Unfortunately, I couldn’t settle on a composition I was happy with and after waiting for the light to appear (which never did) we decided to head off in search of it.<br /> I spotted this tiny barn in the middle of a moor from the roadside accompanied by a couple of bare trees and immediately pictured the scene! <br /> Composition wise, we were spoilt. I chose a landscape orientation at a 7x5 crop. framed using the rule of thirds and waited for that magical light. This image quite literally saved the day, conditions were perfect for the scene.</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/dan-scape/">danscape.co</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/dan-scape/32184825677/" title="Clasping"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7828/32184825677_df447fe528_m.jpg" width="184" height="240" alt="Clasping" /></a></p> <p>The clasping forms of an isoalted birch tree rises out from Leash Fen on the eastern edge of the Peak District.</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/goatifiedcreature/">paulspencerwilliamsuk</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/goatifiedcreature/46212624885/" title="Golden Fairholmes"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7921/46212624885_e3ae1b0f35_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Golden Fairholmes" /></a></p> <p>Taken before Ivor and my first BHF South Downs Way training ride.
