Walking through seasons
It was in the summer time that I decided to grab my camera, put on my walking boots and take a solitary stroll through the hazy countryside to feel the dry ground beneath my feet and the hint of humidity in the warm breeze. It was in this time that I captured some of my favourite pictures (3 of which are shown in the image above).
Since it snowed recently where I live in England, I set out to recapture what I loved in these images and photograph the transition that time and the seasons have on the environment.
The crystallising effects of the winter snow on living organisms casts a macabre shadow on the once lively and thriving environment and yet is still beautiful in the way it can transform an area so completely to the point that it is unrecognisable. The fresh and sparkling landscape gives nature a chance to begin anew in springtime.
The once overgrown and flourishing undergrowth has been stripped back to reveal a runway of slush and ice (also known as 'the place I almost slipped and died).
I love the way the once busy and prosperous branches give way to a sparse entanglement of bristles and thorns, which casts the focus on the odd leaf, still grappling onto it's autumn colours.
I will leave you lovely people with this final set of images. I tried to capture the same area to fully encapsulate the changes the environment goes through during the course of the year.
Comment below what your favourite time of the year is and be sure to follow me on Pinterest and Tumblr for more Photography (including the rest of this photo series) and more creative inspiration.
Thankyou for reading and watch out for a D.I.Y post coming out on Tuesday!!
