My picture of the day-Where's yours?

[al-fresco]

Where did you take the pic, Al ?

Somewhere close to Glyn Ceiriog ?

Go up to Nantyr, follow the track through 2 gates, go through the forest, turn left as you exit the trees (the road descends to Glyndyfrdwy) and follow the rutted track to the summit of Moel Fferna. The picture was taken close to grid ref 125394 OS125.

Outside my house in sunny Doncaster

Is that Cusworth hall?

Here's my picture of the day from Wednesday. It's a bit King Billy in the van this time of year.

Yep it is Cusworth Hall, one of my regular routes around High Melton, Hickleton, Brodsworth Hall, Sprotborough etc...

Pics are from summer '11, but this is my short route from beginning to halfway, as my cameras batteries went after that.

A friend of mine just posted these two pics on another site. I'm not an expert but I thought they are two cracking pics.

Views across the lower Don Valley on a windy day at Boston Park, Rotherham. Planet X bike shop is down there somehwere. Pennines far in the distance.

Despite the "ordinaryness" of the views, your choice of subject is excellent and the pics have a strong feeling of calm; I can almost smell those summer verges and hedges. I like the pylon shot but wish you'd made more of the pylons. Have you ever considered just taking landscapes without the roads? Do you get out with the camera in winter when the light is more interesting? Oh, and I think you ought to read up about the one thirds-two thirds rule as well as I think sometimes that would enhance your pictures. Not always but sometimes.

A few from my albums, but all were taken during rides
Beamsely Almshouses
Off A59, at bottom of Beamsley Bank (between turn-offs to Bolton Abbey & Storiths)

'Squires'
Newthorpe (twixt Sherburn-in-Elmet & Ledsham)
A regular call on the way back for a cuppa & a look at the bikes

'Dunnies'
(officially the 'Wharfe View Cafe')
Otley
Possibly the best value cafe in Yorkshire (& that's saying something!!!)

Thank you. I'm no professional photo-g I just basically snapped up what I liked the view of. And I like taking photos in the day mostly. It's just a standard camera which I used, but I may get a DSLR later on in time. I used an online photo image enhancer too, but, I'll look up the one thirds-two thirds rule for next summers ride

Wow! Outstanding images, it just makes you feel cold looking at them. Truly beautiful in a perverse kind of way!!

What else does one do on Christmas Eve but finally organise tools and workshop down the newly converted cellar?...
