A new year and a new landscape thread!

These were taken in the last few days of 2014, but I only got around to posting them today. An early morning on the Malvern Hills on a rather frosty morning.

2014 Malverns - Midsummer Hill by Birm, on Flickr

Sony A99, first with SAL 70-400 mk1, second with SAL 28-75.

Nice shots Andy. It almost seems like the first one is present and the second one
a sign of things to come.

Sury

Birma I'm not sure which I admire the most the photos or the courage of the photographer but they sure are nice postcards from your neck of the woods.
Greg

Those are terrific. Really communicate a sense of the place.

Thank you Sury, Greg and Pitter

Greg, a few minutes after getting out of my car I was sweating due to the incline and was shedding clothes for a while. It was a bit chillier once I'd stood still for a bit though.

Great shots Andy. The first one really catches my imagination.

Thanks the Hefty

A couple more from the same excursion as my pictures above.

2014 Malverns - Winter Villages by Birm, on Flickr

Both A99, first with SAL 28-75, and second with SAL 70-400 mk1.

Pismo Beach, Monarch Grove. On a crisp wintery evening without any fog, California coast line is as
best as it comes. Seeing is believing.

Andy, those are superb shots. The misty layers in the second shot are lovely.

Sury, that's a beautiful sunset. I'm hoping to see a couple of good sunsets/sunrises soon because it's been a while since we've had any colorful ones around here and I'm having withdrawals.

Thanks the Hefay

Wow, what a sunset, Sury! I really like the way that little creek reflects the colours and leads you in to the picture. There are some vague vertical lines on the extreme left side of the picture - not sure if they are some artefact, or part of your water mark?

They are artifacts, Andy. I thought I cropped it. Thanks for catching it.

Sury

That looks even better now, Sury

Excellent shots Birma, especially Midsummer Hill

Ian

Thanks Ian

Lovely sunset shot of Pismo Beach Sury
