Just Off The A66

[Black Pearl]

Out today drumming up work and as the weather was so fantastic I took the scenic route stopping for a few shots on the crest of most of the hills...

Lovely images. No 2 is an immense composition. Love the greens. Very nice.

Thanks Kev - I was meant to be working but had to keep stopping to enjoy the view. I took some shots and sometimes just got out the car and stood a while taking in the magnificence.

Your office is a very beautiful place BEEPEE.

A pair of super shots.

I know that part of the world very well Beepy ...Met my other half there 52 years ago ... a beautiful part of the world ...has made me feel very nostalgic . It has a certain majesty... and you   have captured that especially in the second one... As Kev said ... the composition is outstanding ...

 Most days I trawl round endless industrial estates in the rain and overcast though they are productive money wise - today while I did alright on the business side I drove through the Yorkshire Dales and frankly didn't have a care in the world.

I go to a cemetery in Darlington three times a year and always meander  back down to Worcestershire  by driving through the Dales... God it does take some beating ...

I've driven this road quite a few times, and I've also stopped looked at the view and not taken 1 photograph

I m with you all on this re fab views and how peaceful it is....I had the pleasure of such views on Saturday on my trip to Ribblehead Viaduct. Number 2 for me.

Sorry BP, I meant to post last night after ticking the like box, then the house phone went off.

Anyway...

People often say a landscape shouldn't work in portrait but I think here you have proved it works blooming' well given the right location, a super photo that really draws your eye in and along. Now get it printed and hung on your wall, too good to be forgotten on a hard drive.

Funnily enough I went through every other shot I took as I didn't want to use/post a portrait one but it seemed to work best for the rolling hills and the layout of buildings etc

Very well done BP, the portrait works well here the hills and sky flow perfectly in portrait orientation.

It's all been said above. Just let me add that I always enjoy your landscapes. The composition is something I can only aspire to.

Again as said lovely part of the world and 2 lovely photographs to show it off.

I quite often press avoid motorways on the old satnav and you come across some wonderful views.

But always seem too busy rushing to the next job to stop. I need to start making more of an effort to stop get out and take more in.

[Black Pearl]

Thanks all.

When I sat at the computer and picked a route to send to the iPhone yesterday I hadn't planned on it being quite so rural but it turned out to be amazing....once I got off the A1 and A66 that is.

Glad I did though as the forecast is drizzle today so I think yesterday was our summer
