Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

Beautiful -such a range of photos. Great choice of music too, I really enjoyed it -I'm not registered on youtube to comment there.

I was with you in spirit - wonderful day I imagine and so lucky with the weather as you pointed out!:thankya:

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

cheers Diane, i guess its one of those things, you dont understand it till you have done it.

i try to capture the essence of where i am, i hope i achieve that someway, but i understand some will just see hills,trees, a sheep, whatever, but the main image isnt "the picture"

thats what i look for in a picture, i see it quite a lot on yours and others peoples posts,

the weather was BRILLIANT, quite cold at night, and as i woke up in shadow, (i chose west facing edge to capture the sunset, plus east facing was rather steep), i got warm by standing up at the summit!!!! weird


back to the photos, is there not a weekly photo comp on here, i see there are a lot of avid photographers?
just for fun thing would be good, would force people like me to be more selective with photos.

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

I feel your energy and its positive -a competition might make things degenerate -given the nature of man! Am enjoying your contribution for what it is - energy, art and positivity. The contact with nature is strong and I can identify with that. Just wish i could have been there...:)

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

aw shucks, such nice comments, thank you!

glad somebody gets it, and its not just me, glad you watched the videos though i think the music adds so much more, that and the ken burns effect

point taken, about comp

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

I was going to make the same point about a competition - I fear it would have a negative effect. At the moment it's free and easy, people post what they want when they want, with no sense of being better or worse than anyone else and that's how it should be.

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

:D agreed totally!

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

well thats the end of that idea

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

Not necessarily -just as long as it remains a friendly idea. Have to think of a non-biased theme.:)

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

About the competition -I just had a look at the Gallery (top of page) and it looks like there have been a lot of competitions before, though they seem to have stopped -don't know how they worked though -I suppose you could ask one of the Mods if they could be done again...

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

Ah that was lovely!Good for you for doing that.

It makes me kind of sad as well though, wish I could be in the countryside more..
I'm going to have a nap now, lol :)

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

glad it tired you out, lol

check out today in pictures thread, loads of people post pics in there

although your 24 hours, might raise......an eyebrow!

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

the competitions were abandoned some while ago because of a glitch in the system to upload pictures.
Darren, I have just looked at both the youtube clips.........I absolutely loved them. Was ever so slightly envious of some of your photographic shots.
There were elements of many of my favourite(photo) things......even bikes!
The music was wondeful too. The Mozart is one of my very favourite pieces. Brilliant.
I can't add comments to your Youtube stuff because I do not have an account........but it would get the thumbs up from me. Loved it!

Re: Lancashire three peaks
 

Well done! beautiful photographs and nice relaxing music :) Lancashire has some wonderful countryside and I really do miss those rolling hills and fabulous walks I used to do with my dad. Special memories. Thank you for sharing your work.
