Development of my Practice - Stepping Outside of my Comfort Zone
I don't usually shoot in shot light, on an overcast day. Usually, when the sun is high in the sky, contrast, deep shadows and extremely bright highlights, is when I choose to shoot. Although, I've recently discovered what a challenge sunlight poses, both in practice out in the field and during post.
Without realising before, I'm trying to consider how to expose for equal amount of detail in the shadows and highlights, most of the time I'm in a position of either exposing for the shadows or the highlights, whichever, I usually loose detail in the foreground or little areas of detail, which is just as difficult as trying to rescue some of blown out highlights from complete oblivion.
Following a bit of research, I decided to venture out and photograph on an overcast day, using a tri-pod, live-view, exposure compensation and the blur-focus method, the result of this much slower, considered process towards my landscape photography practice is the image above.
I'm quite pleased with it as a first attempt, the aim of using exposure compensation was to lighten the shadows in the foreground to bring out a bit of extra detail of the tree and space between the branches, without sacrificing detail of the highlights in the background, which creates a minimalist, white background, allowing the autumnal colours of the leaves to stand out, to pop out from the frame.

problem with wanting to paint-- even in a sketchbook you try to carry with you all the time-- is that SO often the thing that specifically makes me go 'ooohh maybe I should paint that' is a lighting condition that has changed completely by the time I can even finish retrieving my supplies from my bag
#usually the sky doing Something#today it was the sunlight coming through the window and shining through the mini bottle of fireball I got in my stocking last night#and then left on the counter#'sunlight exists' is GENERALLY! NOT! so ephemeral as specific lighting and color in for example the sky in the evening#which keeps changing very quickly#but in this case the sun went behind a cloud and then I looked out the window and it was completely overcast 😭#life painting is not a reactive game I fear#terrible news for my adhd ass#like the good news about 'sunlight coming through at an angle' is that the sun's gonna be at that angle for awhile yet#so I could try again a different day if it's sunnier#bad news is now we're talking about Planning Ahead and then Following Through and oooouuughhhh#about me

The Forgotten Wilderness - Update
According a recent find from the Woodland Trust, only 7% (out of 13%) of total woodland land in the UK is deemed to be 'fairly good ecological condition.
Thank you for being patient as I edited the most recent shoot for The Forgotten Wilderness. Below are a couple of shots from the final edit, three bracketed exposures (1 shot exposed correctly, 1 underexposed by 1 stop and another underexposed by 1 stop) merged together in Lightroom to create an HDR image. Please, I'd appreciate it if you'd share this post to aid in raising awareness of a forest which is overlooked by Harlow Council.

I can see the sun! It’s back! After nearly a fortnight of cyclical gloom (or whatever it’s called) we have daylight again!
#it’s been so dark and overcast for days#my mood has not been good#i know the nights are drawing in but turning on the lights at lunchtime so you can see what you’re eating is ridiculous
