Hexgreave Pond (February 2019)


The cold and icy conditions carried on for a couple of days at the start of February 2019. This allowed a walk across the frost hardened fields towards Kirklington and the pond on the Hexgreave Estate. Last year, the pond had a covering of ice when it snowed and I was pleased to see a thin coating this year, adding some interest to the photography and making the walk more worthwhile.

The first photograph at the pond was a repeat of a composition from the last summer providing a pleasing seasonal comparison and some context for the later, and more abstract, shots:













Despite the low temperatures the conditions where sunny and bright and I tried to make the most of this capturing a number of trees along the path including a couple of the frost lined Southwell Trail:
