Here's a few pictures taken around Tideswell this morning. Still a bit
foggy, unfortunately


And using auto white balance that gets confused in snow and makes
everything blue. Set the white balance to "daylight" for better
results and possibly open the aperture up a stop or two as the auto
exposure also gets confused by the very bright scence and stops
down.

Fair comment, Dave but it was just a quick set of photos with a cheapie camera
with everything set on auto. I need to do some experimenting - I make no claims
to be a photographer!
