UPY British Waters Wide Angle - Commended
'A Bridge not far'
Dave Peake
I live near this location in the Dartmoor National Park. Norsworthy bridge is a favourite with visitors to the nearby Burrator Reservoir which the River Meavy feeds into. In the Winter the water can be very cold but clear. I have been experimenting here with split level techniques but I really wanted to capture some snow in the image. The roads were covered in snow and I parked the car nearby and walked in a dry suit to the river and waded in. This was the best of several attempts.
Judge's comment: This image really stood out both for the subject matter and the classic composition. The snow is the icing on the photographic cake.
