Last week I had to drive from Oxford to Fleet in Hampshire a couple of times. The first day it was absolutely pouring and the roads were sometimes covered in water & I had no time or opportunity to stop. However the second day was sunny and, having dropped off a piece of kit, I could take a little 'lunch time' break and go for a wander in the woods between Hartney Wintney and Reading. The place where I'd stopped had a lot of standing water forming woodland pools, and I could have spent hours there instead of the 25min I allowed myself.
I've processed these in both colour & mono, and while the colour images are pleasing, I feel like the mono strips away a lot of the clutter and distraction in what could be slightly busy scenes.
