Ice on Blea Tarn
Posted by Ian Bramham (Manchester, United Kingdom) on 20 February 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
Blea Tarn which features in Wordsworth's famous poem 'The Excursion'
.
This was photographed on Saturday when I met up with John Leech for a dusk to dawn shoot in the English Lake District.
12 hours photography in beautiful scenery like this produced a lot of landscape photos, both colour and b&w, and I'll be posting the results here over the coming weeks. I hope you'll like them.

You lead the eye so well and set a pace for moving through the frame. This one lingers. Wonderfully winter.

Realy nice shot here. I would have been tepmted to pan down a little as there is nothiing going on in that sky though. And I really think the large white border overpowers the shot, which is a shame because it is a really nice, well executed photograph.

I love your perspective here...the way the fincing leans out into the water. As usual, your BW image quality is pure perfection.

I love the Lakes District. Was visiting there about 6 years ago. Just wish I had a better camera with me back then!
Such beautiful photos!

Great use of leading lines, not only by the fence but also by the lines of the landscape in the background.
