Snow in Bath

Well the snow has finally stopped which has given me a chance to post some photographs I took of Bath under the white blanket.








One of my favorites was the one above of the Royal Crescent. Again this landmark is really great for photographs. I wanted some foreground interest and so included the snow covered branches of a tree to frame the image. The only thing left was to wait for the dark figure of the man running into the shot. This really gives the image a strong focal point.

Snow

Its been a frustrating time for me since the snow arrived in Bath. Ive been nursing a bad case of man-flu which has meant missing out on a host of great photo opportunities. Throwing the cough medicine to one side I managed to get myself out this afternoon to take a quick shot of the Royal Crescent. The architecture is simply amazing and still causes me to stop and stare when I walk past it every day. I made sure I cropped fairly tight to ensure the emphasis is taken away from the plain white sky and onto the crescent and people playing. The boy at the front throwing the snowball really draws the eye into the frame.
I converted the image to greyscale and inserted a black border to add contrast.
