Me-Now-Views; Less Speak More Peek

Memories from Whalley and Ribblehead...









...and again I note that extreme zoom on the Gopika results in a painterly effect...

  3. I love the abbey photos. I'm undecided however about the cars in the first one - anachronism or time travel?? I suspect the gravel area might be the root of my discomfort with the picture; the gravelled bit doesn't do justice to anything. The buildings are in a beautiful colour of stone.

      It kinda felt like time travel... the approach to the car park was via a very narrow gatehouse (seen in the new video!); the cafteria is in what would have been stables, I imagine, for the Tudor part of the buildings that you see in that photograph - and which are still very much in use. Hence the need for that parking area. Yxx

  8. Beautiful photos Yam! The sky does look lovely in the first photo. Cool views of the ruins, the viaduct and the mountain and sheep reflected in your mirror. I am looking to more of your travels in the Grey. Take care, have a great day and week ahead.
