It would have been very cold. We just had our coldest winter in something like 70 years...

I agree:Those are my favourites too. Well done, Niamh. :thumbs_up

Some more pictures from last weekends visit to a nature reserve a couple of miles from my home:

This is a very old forest. very nice and relaxing.

There is also a lot of wetland here, and we certainly got our feet wet here.

This is where we found most of the toads from the pictures in my previous post.

I do believe that is the loveliest and the most content cat I have ever seen. As for the reserve... well. I'm really surprised no faeries snuck into your pictures! Those are lovely sights, indeed!

Yes... He is a 13 year old very gentle and easygoing mog, who really likes people.

Nah. They run away as soon as they see the camera, I suppose ;)

So you did. That prison looks thoroughly intimidating and depressing, which I suspect may be the whole point? The doll picture is very nicely composed: Why don't you use it as your avatar?

Niamh, your pics have such a calming effect :nod:

Loved the cat, Claes

Aluminum, your first picture has is perfect. I liked the angle....it seems to have captured everything nicely :)

Aluminum

Thank you!! The angle was actually a mistake. I was trying to get a "straight on" shot but the walkway was so crowded that I didn't have room. Funny how those things work! Lol

Yes! The atmosphere was incredibly gloomy in some sections. One of the hallways had two mirrors which I thought was the most eerie part of the whole place. It's strange walking in a prison and then suddenly seeing your reflection in gaudy mirrors.

Thanks! Good idea, I'll do that. :D

I agree with Maddie, that first pic has a great balance.

Fantastic pictures Claes, but I thought this was a Rated PG site. :p (I'm referring to the frogs on the previous page.) Even more impressive photos on this page.

Very nice Niamh. I realy liked that third from the bottom picture. Something about the huge sky and the grey tones. Oh and that second from the bottom: Isn't that the Loch Ness monster? :D

Prison looks scary Aluminum. Thanks. :)

Nice pictures Claes, Niamh and welcome aboard Aluminum. This is a beautiful thread and your doll's picture is beautiful. You got the colours absolutely right there. We go out all the time now thanks to the doggy. Went to Boxhill, in Surrey yesterday. Such beautiful places just outside one of the biggest cities in the world:

These pictures were taken under an over-cast sky and some even in rain:
