These are lovely images.
And while things cool down over there, they are beginning to hot up over here!
Over in Portugal, my B.I.L. drives a truck, and today he managed to connect his cellphone up to his GPS on his dashboard and we’ve just been treated to a live drive from Porto to his last port of call. It was marvelous, and the weather is still warm over there: sun shining, hardly a cloud in the sky.
It almost looks as if you’re one northern hemispherean not mourning the passing of summer. That can’t be right. Great shots in b&w – I wouldn’t have predicted this. They capture mood, which come to think of it is more elegiac than ecstatic.
Elegaic, yes that’s what my mood was when I posted the photos. The summer’s been so strange, I find I am looking forward to winter – as long as it doesn’t rains for months like much of last year.
by now I can recognize a post by you from the pictures. the first picture is superb. A friend of mine told me years ago that she prefers landscape over portrait format as the eye has more to explore. She had quite an influence on me. I tries to imagine how a landscape version would look like.

Sometimes technology makes one want to sing it does such magical things. What a great trip, vicariously speaking.
I don’t think there were any Vicars involved, to be honest. Being Portugal it would more likely be a Priest. I shall ask him on the next trip.
Idiot! 😀
Two absolutely beautiful scenes for this week’s challenge. Thanks Tish.
Thank you, Cee. So glad you like them 🙂
Excellent shots Tish and the B&W makes them just so more special. 😀 ♥
Thank you, Sonel.
Agree with Sonel…
This B&W and its magic!
🙂

They look really good in b&w! The latter is a bit mystifying 🙂
Thank you, Tiny.
What beautiful, yet haunting images. Love the texture of the second one.
Thanks, Sue. Wenlock Edge is fascinating in its crumbling textures – all that eroding limestone, and ivy roots.
I love these images….especially number 1. Enjoy your weekend. Janet.
Thank you, Janet. You too 🙂
Yes, indeed… that’s as beautiful as it gets…
Am touched, Shimon. Thank you.

Thank you so much, Anke. I’m impressed that you can recognise my photos.
