Happy New Year! - a photo on Flickriver

Happy New Year!

            Happy New Year everyone. It's been pretty wet and windy on Dartmoor over the last few days. But I managed to get out for a walk and grabbed this image hand held, crouched low in an effort to shield the camera from the worst of the wind (just too windy for the tripod and I needed a faster shutter speed anyway to freeze the windswept tree branches). 

As always, I've taken a lot of inspiration from the many wonderful images posted here on Flickr this year. It's my pleasure and privilege to follow all of you and share our collective experiences. The fact that the numbers are low is one of the things I like about Flickr. It feels like a genuine community bringing like minded people together over real human interactions, sometimes spanning many years. I'll take one thoughtful comment on Flickr over any number of random 'likes' on Instagram - not that I have an Instagram account! 

So thanks to everyone for sharing your images and your kind comments and encouragement over the course of the year. It means a lot to me and I'm looking forward to what the new year brings. Keep safe. Keep well. Keep photographing.
