Bradgate Fungi

 The wet weather resulted in a fine show of fungi at Bradgate and the soft conditions were ideal for photography. Here a few of the species. The first two are handheld focus stacks; rest single shots with aperture adjusted to size of subject and therefore distance from subject.

Grey Heron at Bradgate

Always a delight to photograph, this was a particularly photogenic bird at Bradgate, both in the snow and in non-snowy conditions.

Bradgate Park Early Snow

It snowed heavily for about 30 minutes after I arrived at Bradgate this morning giving some very attractive landscapes with a Chinese painting feel. The snow chnaged to rain so it was a very transient effect. The light level was low so it was difficult to record the deer in the snow.

Bradgate - The River

I paid a morning visit to Bradgate before returning home on Monday in very chilly and showery conditions. The river was full from all the recent rain and the autumn colours beautiful so a spent a bit of time with my Fuji compact capturing the flow of the water using the in built neutral density filter to give shutterspeeds of 1/60th (last image) down to 6.5secs (first image). The first two were with the camera on a rock but the rest handheld as the rain started and I needed to keep the lens protected. I can handhold at 1/8th but the 1/4 and 1/2 sec of some of these was a bit too slow.
