Many thanks to Belita for hosting this week. A great theme, with many possible variations. Looking forward to seeing some beautiful shots!! I am continuing to try to use shots I've not used before on previous themes (although the locations themselves I may have used before), wherever possible. All my shots this week were taken in 2010.
1) The magnificent sandstone formations of Zion National Park, Utah.
2) Inside the walls of Manorbier Castle, Pembrokeshire, Wales
3) Calico Hills, Mojave Desert, Nevada.
4) Laugharne village, Carmarthenshire, Wales, as seen from the top of Laugharne Castle.
VERY VERY NICE Mitch put mine up sorry I had a little trouble grrrr
ReplyDeleteThanks Heidi :-))
DeleteLovely postcards Mitch. I especially like the one of Laugharne village. That would definitely be a best seller in the village shop.
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat :-)) Laugharne is quite a compact little village. It's also the place where poet Dylan Thomas did a lot of his writing.
DeleteHi Mitch! What a great selection of photos for the theme. I would love to receive all of them, not one, only... However, if you ask me which of the four is my favourite, I would not hesitate to say... the one of Laugharne village...
ReplyDeleteThanks Belita :-)) Laugharne is a really pretty little village.
DeleteFantastic shots! That first one is my favorite of this set.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful old castle walls!
Such interesting terrain in the third shot! DO you hike in that area? Looks treacherous!
Pretty rooftops and amazing clouds in that last one! Love the bit of green fields in the background. So nice!
Thanks Debby :-)) There are a lot of hiking trails in the Calico Hills, but I didn't do any that day. Joanne and I were visiting the area primarily to see Red Rock Canyon, which was immediately behind me as I was taking that shot.
DeleteHi Mitch, wonderful shots. I particularly like the sandstone formations of Utah, so evocative of the old West, peaceful and dreamy.
ReplyDeleteThanks Benni :-)) Zion National Park has a amazing collection of sandstone formations, many of which are HUGE!!. I don't think my photos really convey just how big they are.
Deletehi mitch,lovely postcards from magic places, my fav is the second one which speaks about ancient times
ReplyDeleteThanks Nico :-))
DeleteFabulous Mitch, four stunning captures for the theme I cant pick a favourite they are all amazing in their own way, ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks Baz :-))
DeleteMajestic mountain vistas in the first and third
ReplyDeleteMagnificent old ruinous wall.
Wonderful capture of the village.
The thing I like best about Manorbier Castle is that they've let the wildflowers grow and flourish within the castle walls, unlike many other historical sites.
