Winter in the Severn Valley

 
The photography over the winter breaks conclude with a couple of days visiting the Severn Valley, in more glorious weather.  The first day we were around Country Park, near Highley/Alveley.
 
 
This is an area we know well; several of Bens photography projects have been shot around here over the years.
 
 
A combination of nice frosty conditions and strong sunlight created some nice effects,
 
 
 
Its been a little while since we've taken some straightforward railway shots, and the cold weather created some nice opportunities.  The visiting 9F is seen storming through the woods near Hampton Loade.
 
 
Of course the downside to the weather was lens-flare-o'rama...

 
...but also a chance for some moody greyscale images. 
 

 
Onwards to Hampton Loade.
 
 
 
And then back the way we came, and a chance for another few train shots, this time of the DMU.
 
 

 
The next day saw us at Bewdley, a bit further down the Severn.  More of a nice day out than a specific photography trip, but a couple of opportunities for shots nevertheless.
