We visited Helsby in Cheshire the other day while the weather was nice. After walking up Helsby Hill, we ventured on and found this nice little farm and a duck pond (I think they had the nerve to call it a lake!) ;-)
I dumbed down the highlights a little and increased the black spot ... cropped for a wider view and nothing more. All done in Apple Aperture 3.
Can you see Black Beauty ?
