Lovely to hear from you,many thanks for your kind word's,Jan & I hope all is well with you & your family.We are into May now & still feels like Winter,the pic's I posted were taken over the last couple of months & as you can see from some of them,we were getting better weather then,than we are now lol. My sincere apologies if I repeat myself,but have no idea with these techy terms & the knowledge you guy's seem to have,as I may have said before,with me,it's more a question of feel for a good shot & composition,I just set my camera on auto then leave the rest to myself & picasa to come up with the rest. I'm happy with the result's I get with my limited knowledge on this fascinating subject,but am over the moon & still feel very humble,although very appreciative that you guy's like what I am doing. Very Best Regards. John.

John - just what we've come to expect from you and your camera
I'm desperately waiting for some consistent sunshine to take some brighter photos - heaven knows how long I'll have to wait

We had a beautiful sunny day today for a change,took advantage of it & went for an evening stroll around a local parkland area,with a gorgeous setting sun,took a few shot's of the local foliage.
Best Regards. John.

Beautiful - as usual - John. I think today's the first day this year I've worn a short sleeved shirt, so things are looking up!
I'm caravanning near York week after next, and then off up to Inverness in 5 weeks time. I'll try to get some photos of the dolphins in the Moray Firth to share on here

A few more shot's taken from around the same parkland area as above.The River in most of the shots,idyllic in these shot's, incidentally, is the River Derwent,from which,in 2009 the vast amount of water, flowing down the river,due to excessive rainfall ultimately caused serious damage to the bridge in the last pic,necessitating in closure for several months.
Two bridges further down river,one a footbridge,the second,another main road bridge were completely destroyed,being washed away by the volume of water,very sadly,a Police Officer on duty at the road bridge,lost his life when the bridge collapsed. The Town of Workington was literally divided into two halves,road traffic had to make lengthy detours,to get to either side,the towns inhabitants,traveling between the two,without road transport had to make use of Rail travel,incidently,the Railway also crossed further down river,escaped relatively intact,thus carried on in service. After months out of service,the bridge you see here was re-opened,a new footbridge was built,as was the roadbridge that collapsed, re-opened with a new, very stylistic, modern bridge which was opened in honour for the Police Officer who's life was lost. Best Regards. John.

I'm getting VERY envious seeing all that blue sky
Here's one for you to identify - it's on your side of the Pennines
