After several days of very cold weather, with a lot of greyness and mist, suddenly it is milder. Some refreshing light was on offer today.

I had to wait for my son to finish watching a show at  the theatre, and  so had a chance to take some night shots.

It was cold, cloudy and drizzling. The ambient light was slightly spiced-up by the Xmas decorations, which maybe helped to account for some of the interesting colours here.

It was the kind of light that came through the window, tapped you on the shoulder and said "you don't want to be stuck inside with your laptop - you want to be out taking photos".

So at lunch time I drove up to Wicken Fen (12 miles or so north of Cambridge) and got some pictures, principally of the windpump (must not call it a mill) there. The weather was extremely changeable, switching from blue sky to cloud and rain in minutes. But when the sun did shine, it was a lovely clear East Anglian light ...

Path heading into King’s College Cambridge, taken during a very rosy autumn dawn. HDR.

Again, the tree on the left is useful to cover up the unsightly scaffolding on the chapel.

Kings's College chapel still has some ugly scaffolding on it, which means the composition is pretty much dictated by the need to get the tree in the way of it.

HDR image; the river was merged back in from the neutrally-exposed first image (of the 3 image set) with GIMP, so its reflections were not blurry.
