Photography - Morning frosty walk.


This week has seen some of the lowest temperatures this winter, we have had a few heavy frosts thanks to the cold nights. Today was a particularly cold start and virtually everything had a crisp frost covering and when I drew back the curtains it all looked so pretty. We had previously promised the kids that we would go to the shops to get some 9v Batteries for some walkie talkies they got from Santa. Whilst I stood there looking at the beauty of all the frozen rooftops I felt the need to make the most of the crisp fresh morning.

I decided that the best way to make the most of everything was to walk to the shops with the family, so we wrapped up warm and set of. I had the Nikon primed and ready to try and capture the beauty of the Ice cold morning. I was not disappointed by what awaited me! We got to the local park which leads us naturally to the shops and I could not stop snapping away. The sun had just risen high enough in the sky to shine down on the frosty ground, it was that moment I realised I had timed our walk perfectly. It doesn't often happen but when the light started to shine through the trees it was simply amazing everywhere I looked I was able to compose a beautiful image.

I had taken the slightly more rugged nature trail which runs along side the park whilst Katy and the kids took the sensible path through the middle. I could hear my family in the middle of the field whist I snapped some of the best photos I have taken in along time. I felt so happy in that moment, I was doing what I loved whilst listen to my family enjoying the fresh open air. I chosen the best pictures from our walk and posted them below for you to enjoy.

When we got to the shops we had a lovey warming cup of coffee and the kids had two rounds of toast which were welcome pit stop for all. We got what we needed at the shops then headed back home, when we headed back through the park the sun had risen in the sky and most of the frozen beauty had since melted.

It really was a lovely way to start a day with my family and it allowed me to get some photography of the stunning frosty morning. The weather forecast has suggested warmer air is moving in overnight so I'm really glad that I was able to get out with my Camera and family.
