Welcome to my world ...
Only a few miles from my home and this is what I’m exposed to … I’m allowed to walk anywhere here, along the track on the left to the foot of the waterfall, or up on the hills to it’s source … This is why you’ll never find me home on a weekend, I am surounded by this beautiful countryside …. but, I dont like Mondays !!

I’m not surprised you don’t like mondays! What a glorious landscape!
richiedean replied
Thanks Mel, it’s a struggle to know what to put up on the bubble and what to keep back ….... :))
Glenna Walker
Wow, I wish my world were more like this, such awesome beauty :))
richiedean replied
Thank you Glenna, it is kinda lush and green isnt it, that’s due to our climate, you can tell there’s been rain recently by the amount of water coming down the fall …..... and the puddles in the foreground tracks …....... :))

I’m off for a walk in the beautiful country side. Very nice landscape photo.

Gorgeous place Richie and I love that area of Wales. I spent 4 months in Aberystwyth a few years back when I was doing some study. Coldest and wettest winter I’ve ever had but the scenery and people made it all very worth while! I love the history of the area.
Those mountains bring back so many memories….thanks for posting this.
richiedean replied
Cheers Shaddy, you came a long way to study, glad you enjoyed your time here … oh, and it’s cold and wet in summer too ….. lol !!

Stuart Chapman
Can see why you’re so inspired to get out and about Richie (and why Derbyshire wasn’t as awe inspiring to you as it was to me!)
Lovely greens encased by the glorious steep hills and rushing falls.
p.s. Nice to see the sheep have got a better footing on that slope!
Marilyn Harris

mikepaulhamus

Aloramyst
A beautiful place!
richiedean
I tell you what Stu, I’m wishing my life away at the moment, I just cant wait for the weekends to arrive, it doesnt matter what the weathers like, if it’s bad, it usually breaks for a time and that can be so uplifting and magic moments can be captured, which otherwise would never be seen and if its good, being out amongst that beauty and freshness makes you feel like laughing …..
I’m off on a 14 mile hike tomorrow, along my old favourite, the Montgomery canal ….. where those slipping sheep were !!! Anyway, Cheers Stu !!!

THIS is what so many people long for, Richie – the chance to be away from street signs and honking horns and just to be quiet in the green of pastures. You are most fortunate, so please enjoy it for all of us! ~ Pat
richiedean replied 22 days ago
Believe me Pat, when I’m spending my weekends camping and exploring my beautiful surroundings, I often think just how great it would be, to take a group of bubblers with me to enjoy it too … I definitely know just how fortunate I am, to have this beauty on my doorstep. I originated from the second largest city in the UK and always yearned for the country life …...... looks like my dream came true …........... Thank you Pat …........... :))
