Ethereal.
A view over the lake at Roundhay Park, i have called it ethereal as it was just magical and probably never to be seen again, a elderly gentleman told me he had walked round the park almost everyday for the last 30 years and never seen anything like it before and in his words " get thy camera out young un and start taking some photo's before it melts" it didn't take me long to start snapping:)

Beautiful! I totally agree with your title - this is does seem too perfect for this world. What a magical moment you have captured!!
tim hitchins: thank you so much martie, happy you thought that.
Yes, it is a magical fairyland..where everything is delicate as new fallen snow....To keep this image somewhere close so that you could remind yourself once in a while what is truly possible...might be a good idea!
tim hitchins: yes Laura i intend to get this one enlarged and framed it was such a awesome sight, one i will not forget
Ethereal indeed, Tim. Hope this is the beginning of the series of the ethereal shots.
tim hitchins: i have a few to show VZ, just wish i had got there a bit earlier so as to catch the mist that was around that morning as well,
Glad you got that camera out 'young un'. This is a magical capture. Love everything about it.

What a wonderful sight - it seems a shame we might have to wait another 30 years for another like this! It is like something out of a fairy tale.
Ingrid
tim hitchins: most appreciated Ingrid, i sincerely hope not, and if it ever does i know for sure i will not be setting off for work lol.
An enchanting image Tim, right place - right time. You know I like reflection work - this is a likey for me my friend.
tim hitchins: well i was noel but only just, had gone to work but lucky for me all the pipes were frozen
What a beautiful scene of hoarfrost. This seems to happen quite a bit throughout Europe as several photographers have featured it. It is ethereal...and magical. Absolutely beautiful.
tim hitchins: it sure is Mary glad you liked it
A stunning shot. I love the reflections in the water. I've heard of Roundhay Park - is it Leeds somewhere?
tim hitchins: yes Paul just outside Leeds, iv seen Wacko jackson, u2, simple minds and robbie williams play their which were brilliant scenes to witness with 80,000+ inside but this beats the lot for me, most appreciated Alan
Just wonderful so clear and crisp,I bet it was cold
tim hitchins: the way i was charging round the place i didn't feel a thing lol
Oh yes, wonderful- magical , cloud-trees, I'm feling we are a bit above the earth and "it" never can "melt" after you have taken this and these photos! Thanks to the "elderly gentleman" and to you!

Tim this is just mind blowing I love it. Everything about it just stands out for me.

Perfect title. The entire series of this event is absolutely magical, and most likely a 'once in a lifetime' event.
I am glad you were there with your camera and artistic eye documenting it for the world to see Tim!
tim hitchins: yes that probable is the sad part Kevin, our milder winters over here just mean virtually no snow or frost, but who knows what mother nature has up her sleeve, most appreciated Kevin
