The gentle paw of God...?
27 September 2005 (11)

Fovant, Salisbury, UK

Taken from Chiselbury Iron Age hillfort.

I went out for an evening's walk (after several 'rain stopped play' moments, from lunchtime onwards...), and took my camera with me:
mainly to play around with the circular polarizing filter that's been sitting unloved in my photographic-bits-and-pieces drawer for over a year....
Found myself climbing the steep chalk path (which was a bit mushy!) up through Fovant Badges; and then walking the full circumference of the fort.

It was a good evening for varied skies:
although all the clouds started to disappear just as the sun hit the horizon!
Such is life!

Stunning sky drama with the contrast of deep azure against the gloomy clouds.A most pleasing shot!

A beautifully saturated shot. Very well composed. Nice work, Stephen.
