Lovely shots, agree colours are gorgous and composistion is splendid.

Agree with the others re the rich colours. But composition wise, I find the back of the bench a bit bothersome to be honest. Not sure if its the angle of it, or just the fact it creates a 'barrier' in the shot.

Very nice exposures though, and sharp as anything.

Thanks for the comments.

The bench actually makes the shot for me in the first photo. Perhaps because of the fact it was Wordsworth's house, I imagine him sitting there , admiring the view and being inspired.

I guess without that knowledge, the bench might be seen as distracting from the photo ?

I know exactly what you mean, and this is the shot I probably would have gone for as well. Even without the knowledge that it was Wordsworth's bench, it is tempting to go for these shots that invite you to imaging sitting there, taking in the view. It would probably work better with the bench off to one side, angled in to the shot a bit more.

You can see how he may have been inspired in that place. Very picturesque.
