Description Looking down from Chinley Churn toward the far end of Chinley village with the Hayfield road in the distance.

A beautiful warm August afternoon with just the right amount of heat to be comfortable. Summer is coming again soon folks.

We are lucky and thanks.
Now if it would just stay like it is today, all warm and sunny it would be even better.
Good to know there is another artist in the area.

This is the best landscape photo I've seen from you so far

Color, detail, focus, subject, exposure, it's all just right.

This is truly a very good photograph.

is that a house on this steep hill? I swear, I can't imagine living on a hill....like that upright tree on a steep hill....another form of rebellion...never mind that...

If one were to walk out of his house, he'd stumble down the hill if he's not very careful. Then he'd fall into the next person's back yard and uh oh...beware of dog?

Living on a hill would scare me shitless.

I live on a hill. It's lovely, you get a great view, no chance of flooding and it's not that steep.

It's nice to see a green field when it's currently in the negatives today. Damn you and your earlier seasons than us...me.

Anyways, the hill on the left looks to be the best sledding hill. I'll have ot keep that in mind.

horai In reply to Sanoon [2008-01-30 19:13:03 +0000 UTC]

I did keep this one from the Summer, I like to do that to cheer people up a little in the Winter.
That whole valley is good for sledding if you feel a little suicidal.

Sanoon In reply to horai [2008-01-30 20:53:45 +0000 UTC]

I can make it even more dangerous by cardboard sledding. My dad showed me how to do that one year. Take a waxed box in the summer, go to your favorite hill on a sunny, dry day, and slide down the grass...just hope like hell you don't crash.

Not too long now, I need a good Summer this year, I swear I've got rust.

You do indeed see some baaaaaa-s?
They look a little small from here sadly but I do have a really funny (well I think so) of that maybe I should post.

Thanks ever so much.
