Here are a few shots of the English countryside from my recent trip:

I'll do one more post for some London shots, then I'll stop. :D

Every photograph is good, very good. I like your
composition and use of colour to either harmonise
or contrast. They have a dream like appeal to the
eye.

I agree they are very good shots. Looks like you had some decent weather and these have made me even more keen to go over the England next year.

I always find that striking when I go overseas. We are quite a wide brown land.

Thank you again.
Yes, the Lake District particularly has that unworldly like effect.

We were pretty lucky really. We were washed out one morning and shot through another drizzly day, but the rest was basically dry. On one of the early days I actually got sunburnt. In England. Sunburnt! :shock:

I got sunburnt! I nearly peeled! :shock:

Actually we had many days of cloud, but it was white not grey. Did have some grey in London.

Daniel - these are really great and have captured the green rolling hills and quintessential english country side very well. I also had a scroll through some of your inner city shots and there are some rippas in there too!

Stunning - I especially like #2 and 3 - the colours in #2 are outstanding.
