"I frequently trampled eight or ten miles through the deepest snow to keep an appointment with a beech-tree, or a yellow birch, or an old acquaintance among the pines." Henry David Thoreau

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Strophylia Reserve II

The combination of the pine forest, the bright blue sky and the swamps can be breath taking. Strophylia reserve is one of our favourite destinations when we are out shooting. On this occasion we were lucky enough to have the light on our side.  It was getting a bit late for shooting wildlife so we took this opportunity to go for landscapes. We bagged our heavy lenses and felt the bliss of carrying the lighter landscape gear. The clear winter day and the evening light allowed us to take some very pleasing photos.
