  • Dear Chris, YAY! It's is so good to see you here once more :O) and in my favourite part of the world too :o)) I have often wondered what had happened to you and where you were sharing your pictures these days Its well past the witching hour but noticed your album and just had to comment I might even be first to ;o) I'll make sure I get back to view all the wonderful pictures over my breakfast in the morning Hope you are keeping well. Take care now, Jill

  • Dear Rod, OOOPs you can tell it's been a long time since I wrote in your guest book LOL but you knew who I meant I just had to have a quick look now and the pictures are just wonderful but I will be back in the morning like I said for a longer look, Jill

  • Hi Rod - did I ever get to wish you a Happy New Year I wonder? It's been a long time, for sure. Jill left me a message telling me about this album so I dropped everything and came running! So good to see your photos again and this album contains some classic ROD shots! Wonderful work and I have left a few comments as I went along. Is this your first visit to the Lakes and has it whetted your appetite for more? It's not quite so rugged as your beloved Scotland but is beautiful in it's own wonderful way and I have lasting memories of day trips and longer stays. I have no doubt that you have one or two more albums up your sleeve from this trip and am eagerly awaiting them! Great to see you back here and I'll catch up with you again over the coming weeks. All best wishes, Peter

  • Dear Rod, Well I had to come back this morning and leave some more comments Methinks you have a few more lakeland pictures on your cards too as you were in a few different locations. You were incredibly lucky with the weather which makes all the difference to the wonderful views. It's great to see some new pictures from you as your compositions can teach us all a thing or two. Hope you have a great weekend Jill

  • Hi Rod, As expected this album is filled with beautiful shots. I eagerly await your next visit up there. There are SO many photos waiting to be taken. I have been up there so many times and still have not seen it all. I probably never will. Do try to visit the western lakes when you go back. They are so peaceful. I really enjoyed going through this Rod. I am off to the Scottish highlands in just over 2 weeks and desperately hoping the weather picks up. I am going with my brother and family and they have already been there so know lots of wonderful places for us to visit. I have bought extra memory cards as I have a feeling I will need them. Its great to have you back. Take care now. Chesca xx

  • Dear Chris, What a wonderful album this is! I love the Lake District. You were certainly there at the right time and have really done the scenery justice. Thank you for your comments on my "Historic Heritage, Australia" album. I have added some more to it, and will keep adding to it as time goes by. I'm rather busy with work for my public speaking club at present, so will be missing from Webshots for a couple of weeks. Thanks again. Best wishes, Judith.

  • Hi Chris, Thank you so much for your continued comments and support, it is alays a pleasure to hear fom you. Someone has the clock on fast forward down here and the days are not long enough any more. I love this album it is as I remebered it. Certainly an area I want to see again along with Yorkshire Dales (my home turf) and Scotland. It looks like you had good weather for these shots. There is an air of tranquility and being able to recharge ones batteries here. Fabulous album with your trademark landscapes and scenic views.. just great as always.. hugs Susan

There are so many places for you to visit. I don't think I will get there again this year but will deffinitely try for next year even if it's just a long weekend. Hope you are having a good week. Bye for now. Love Chesca xx

  • Dear Rod, Thanks so much for your visit to the first of my November Lakes visit albums I still have some from the summer to get online to be honest but the autumn ones got online first for a special reason. We were there for the remembrance day walk to Great Gable and those pictures are now online. It was as always a very moving day made all the more special as light snowflakes were falling on us at 11am and just after the skies cleared and we were treated to the most stunning views you get from Gable's Summit. The next time you visit the Lakes you should try and visit Watendlath its a delightful hamlet at the end of the road where Ashness Bridge is. That location you would love especially on a day when there is a perfect sky and theres always the lovely tea shop at Watendlath too which was unfortunately closed in mid November. Take care now and Thanks once again always love to hear from you. Jill

I have a freind in Barrow-in-Furness and spent some time with her exploring England and Scotland. I just love it,so it was good to view your photos. Will have to look in on more of your photos of UK. Well done. All the best for the new year. Regards from down under, Terry.

  • Just had to visit and say thank you for the comments on my POTD, snow cabin. It was such a surprise when I started getting guestbook entry's. I do love good scenery photo's because there are places in this world that I'll never get to any other way. My grandfather was born in Scotland so I consider England and Scotland as a place that I would like to visit some day. These are beautiful pictures. Thanks for sharing them.

  • Dear Rod, Every time I visit your albums, I know I shall be in for a treat, and this album hasn't let me down. Such breathtaking scenery, and stunning photography, just take my breath away. (You even had the courage to capture the waterfall 'au naturell'. Delightful....I am not a great fan of wet-cotton-wool-waterfall s.) So pleased you enjoyed my bluebells. I wish I could send their perfume with them. Very best wishes, Sheila
