Today was one of those rare days when I woke up early, it was forecast to be a sunny start to the day, and I had the luxury of time to go out and take some pictures. These are all from a local common called the Old Hills, just outisde of Worcester, quite near the Malvern Hills. It was a fosty start to the day and cloudless, if a bit hazy.  Waiting for sunrise by Birm, on Flickr A100 with Tamron 11-18.  Misty trees by Birm, on Flickr A100 with Minolta 70-200/4 - just have the two extremes of lens types

Birma, you can surely win competitions with these shots, specially the second one.

Really love #2 Birma, needs to be a setting for a scene in a mystery novel.

Thanks Gio67 - I know what you mean about missing out on shots - I also drive around quite a bit with work and it is just gutting to whizz past great scenes because I need to get to a meeting etc. Thanks John
