@Linerberry: Cheers Linerberry, to tell you the truth this was a very dark shot and when i lightened it the ivy which was a lovely red, lost all its colour.

that river is looking a bit more turbulent than the last time you posted a shot of this area! i love that bridge -- i would stand up there and gaze down at the river... where are you? are you in the river? ;)

How thoroughly stunning Alun, exquisite bridge and the house to the right with its foliage covered roof and wall is out of this world...does it ever change colour with seasons, I can only dream of what it would look like in vibrant colours...what a beautiful, beautiful place

@Lorraine: The house was bright red when i took this image and i lost it because the shot was to dark. I will put another one on with the right colour, thank you for the lovely comment

Great framing in this one, and love the sense of movement in both the water and the car!

What a stunning shot!
Beautiful light you've captured and it appears to have been a windy day the the motion in the water.

Ted from South Wales, United Kingdom
Nice shot! Good of you to chop the mountain off so we can see the car, pity about the wall as well.
What mode were you shooting in as you seem to have more noise than usual?
20 Oct 2008 6:43pm
@Ted: And as i have already wrote that is the hill (not mountain) as is. Not chopped off. As for the noise, it was not down to the mode, it was because as i have wrote this was very dark and doing a lot of playing with levels and shadow and highlights it has done this. thanks for commenting

I love the effect, it looks like a painting.

I really love that bridge, but its a difficult one to drive across, especially if your approaching the main road across it (someone always turns onto it when your half way across. LOL). Love your exposure and PP, a very light, airy effect which makes the image all the more beautiful.

@Richard_Irwin: Thanks Richard.. yes that bridge can be a nightmere.
