Yes
My first attempts at new location. Am thinking its best to keep going back in different conditions, times etc to get to know the place. These are my first attmpts, be better wheb the wheat comes through and the sky more filled but any comments greatly recieved....

and photoshop hints welcome!
 
Its my favorite location in Warwickshire (y) I've shot hundreds of photo's here over the last 3 years, all different weathers, and style's I'm convinced I could shoot a 365 from just this location, I quite like the processing the contrasty processing has helped here under what doesn't look like the best light
 
yeah, it was 11am this morning. First time i wanted to risk my rear wheel drive on the roads! Im thinking that if it was still full of snow it wouldnt have been as contrasty though. In your experience of the area, whats the best spot to shoot from?

Would love to see yours. Im thinking sunset and sunrise obviously, a windy day shot with big clouds flying over, a dusk shot with crops lit in the foregorund with flash. Is it a wheat field?

live in cov so can get to it in 30 mins. very boggy there today!

You we're actually in one of the better positions (y) but it all depends on the time of year (y)

Just had a look, very envious!! Will see if I can get some as good this year! I see u have some tasty light trails too, are they off an m40 bridge or a46? Another project I've been looking to try out too!
