The Wye Valley

[Laurie Parker]

Went yesterday on a day trip to the gorgeous Wye Valley, went to the ancient viewpoint at Symonds Yat then along to the riverside and popped in to see Tintern Abbey, amazing scenery in all directions at this place could have spent days there as photo opportunities were everywhere, weather was pretty cloudy to begin with but brightened up later in the day.

Symonds Yat is a village split by the river and for a small fee a handpulled ferry will pull you across river saving a 5 mile trip by road

Lovely shots Laurie. I had forgotten how beautiful it was around there. I must go back and visit again.

2 gorgeous shots there Skye, but the top one is just breathtaking: very formal-looking and the building, despite its state of decay looks so regal. Marvellous.

cheers Guys, couldn't agree with you more Pete the area is so photogenic I seriously could spend days there to capture it at different times of the day, but I bet autumn there is something well worth considering.

Gorgeous looking building aint it Grez makes me think when I look at places like this of the skills of the people that built them, and thinking that it stood through battles, world wars the lot

 

[Glen Roberts]

A couple of lovely country scenes Skye.

 

[Alastair Cummins]

Two beautiful shots, I really like the river curving away into the distance.

I should really stay up that way and explore a bit more when I go up there for the rallying

 

[Laurie Parker]

worth spending few days there Alistair really is a scenic area, they do rallying in the forestry by my house may go see if I can get some shots next time they are there

 

[Tim Pindar]

Great shots. Nice and sharp and lovely colours.

Worth a visit... for the Ryder Cup!
