Meandering on the Moors | Verity Milligan
Earlier this month I took a trip down to Exmoor and Dartmoor, two landscapes that I’ve often wanted to explore, both are uniquely different and yet share a certain wildness and beauty. Exmoor is the master of variety with its hills, heather and the moorland sweeping towards a pebbled coastline beyond. Dartmoor is rugged, with it’s tors and sparse, expansive terrain. Both have wild ponies roaming the moorland, adding to the mystery and atmosphere, but my images of them I’m saving for a separate post. This photo set is all about the landscapes, captured on my Fujifilm X-T1 with my newly acquired 10-24mm. I hadn’t realised how much I missed an ultra wide until I buckled and purchased this lens, and I’m so glad I did. The 14mm was sharp and beautiful, a prime to it’s very soul, but the 10-24mm has a versatility that cannot be denied, and I really need that when I’m in the field. The weather was ideal, with the autumnal combination of mist and sunshine in the mornings at sunrise with the transitional colours of the moorland turning purple to orange. The evenings brought great light, but really, for me it’s always about the mornings. I hope you enjoy……
