"Great is Thy Faithfulness" by Phil Thomson IPA

As sure as the sun rises each morning, so it is with God’s Great Faithfulness to watch over, protect and provide for each of us, His children. The dawning of a perfect Autumn day as the sun creeps up through the mist that has settled over Thompson’s Creek, on the historic Charlemont sheep station. Lamentations 3:22-24 (New International Version) / New International Version (NIV) 22 Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, / for his compassions never fail. 23 They are new every morning; / great is your faithfulness. 24 I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; / therefore I will wait for him. The words to the wonderful old hymn penned back in 1923, still stand testament today! Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father; / There is no shadow of turning with Thee; / Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not; / As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be. Refrain Great is Thy faithfulness! / Great is Thy faithfulness! / Morning by morning new mercies I see. / All I have needed Thy hand hath provided; / Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me! Summer and winter and springtime and harvest, / Sun, moon and stars in their courses above / Join with all nature in manifold witness / To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love. Refrain Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth / Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide; / Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, / Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

Valldal - Winter by Åsta Skjervøy

A winter panorama shot of the valley Valldal on the west coast of Norway, taken during the christmas holiday. Stitched together of 15 pictures. Post-processing: / Stitched some pictures together, obviously. Fixed the contrast with curves, added a lighter curve only on the lower part as the valley was pretty dark, and the mountain tops really light. Added two black and white layers set to hard light (140%), mainly on the sky and the mountain tops.

The Nilgiris - Dawn by Vikram Franklin

OK – not quite what taken at Dawn – I couldn’t get up in time (my excuse – this was over the New Year and I’m certain I wouldn’t have been able to focus straight had I got up at the crack of dawn on New Year morning) Just processed one similar to the other one of this view to try and get it to as close to what it would have looked 4 hours before I woke up! As I saw it the previous morning (while my batteries were charging)

The View Down Swaledale, North Yorks by Steve Smith

3.50pm and the light was fading fast, this was taking from the Keld to Tan Hill road, which a further mile up the road was shut due to snow, turned round and saw this wonderful landscape. Sometimes it pays to look behind you as if the road had been open I would have missed it. Nikon D300 – 06.01.2009
