Yep, well done all,

Hi Dan,

There was one sculpture just up from the cottage.. a carved log layed down.. or something.. but we didn't do the woodland walk that takes you past them. After seeing a couple of pictures of others in one of the grockle leaflets I don't think I missed much to be honest.

BTW, I got a couple of shots of a slow-worm.. first time I've seen one in the wild.. not exactly award winning, but passable.. and also some shots of mink.. again a first.. although they are pretty bad.. about 250 pixels high with a 300 lens.. and blurred at that.. they won't be gracing the board.

Cheers

Liam

Thanks George..

We had a bit of sun on Wednesday evening, but apart from that it rained pretty much all the time..

I've got a few shots of the weather coming down across the hills.. while we were still in them..

Locations in order..

Bottom end of Windermere, at Ambleside, taken from Borran Park. I couldn't find the name of the hotel!! (Might be Wateredge Hotel)

Just up the hill from Brothers Water, back towards Kirkstone Pass.

Just across the road from the car park for the above walk.

Grizedale Forest. The wall is the garden wall of the cottage we stayed at.

I'll post a couple more up in the morning.. but now a drink is in order.

Cheers

Liam

Hi all,

Hi Rae,

Hi Pete..

Wrong "Gallery music".. Leftbank (spelt it wrong earlier) was the theme tune to Tony Hart's veiwers paintings gallery in the TV programme Vision On.. whereas the tune you've used is Cavatina, the theme tune to Tony Hart's veiwers paintings gallery in Take Hart. A generation gap..

My point about it looking like a memorial still stands though. It's people smiling, so a nice upbeat tune, if you have to have music would be more fitting. IMHO anways.

Cheers

Hi Pete,

just a quickie.. lunch break.

A portrait slideshow using Leftback makes it look and sound like a memorial to the dead.

You look at any African charity advert for instance, and that's how they get you by the heart strings.

Landscape slideshows.. slightly different, but always ALWAYS give people the option of clicking a mute button. A one click option, because the only other one click option is to close the window..

Work beckons.

Cheers

Liam

And me..
