Early rise this morning to visit Bissoe's Nature reserve, I had not been before so I didn't know quite what to expect. On arrival the sun was golden as it began to rise over the misty stream, there were also the sound of birds in the surrounding trees. And as I stood looking at the beautiful scene before me, I had a feeling of great joy because it was one of those moments when I knew this is what I love about nature photography. For this shoot I was again using the Nikon D810 with a 24-70mm lens. Having the lens at 24 mm meant I could get a good wide shot of the landscape, although I did have the fisheye lens on me for once in a long time it wasn't really needed for this particular picture I wished to create. To make sure I got the mist in focus I switched the lens to manual focus. There was also plenty of birds to see at Bissoe such as Buzzards, Robins and Gold crests but I seemed to focus all my attention on landscapes today, along with some macro photography on some fungi. All in all it was a lovely morning, photographs will be added to the landscape sections shortly:
