Sunset on Sedgemoor

Posted by
Doug (Burnham-on-Sea, United Kingdom) on 18 February 2012 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

A couple of weeks ago Nigel and I took a drive out onto the Somerset levels, which are mostly peat moors, to find the starling murmeration and encountered some incredible lighting

Please excuse me if I don't get to comment people's images some days but I've had to return to a work life rather than become a pensioner as I had planned due cost of living and the tax man wanting a lump of my pension. I am making an effort to return to AM3 after a bit of an absence, it's really nice to see photo's from all contributors and I will try to comment when I can. If I offer criticism I do so only to help and I do not wish to cause offence. My photography tends to be from my travels, as well as my passion which is wildlife and landscape. I hope you enjoy what you see.
Thanks for your comments I'm really grateful for them and welcome constructive feedback.
