    Visited the little village of Ruthin over the weekend and thought I'd post these images showing it's "olde worlde" buildings and landscape.

    Looks like a nice place Nat, particularly like no 2 and the perspective it displays with the countryside in the backdrop.

      Thanks Bill. Yes, it is a nice place & I am getting to know the areas around here with the good weather we have been having.

        Look like a very beautiful place Nat. Like the Architecture of the place that you so very well captured.

          Nice shots, Nat. Next time you go have lunch at On The Hill restaurant. Great food and even better value.

            Thank you Tom and Ian for taking a look. Ian I will keep "On the Hill" in mind next time I am around there. I don't know whether you can help. I know that your Chester area and environs has got some old barns here and there. I have been told that there is a barn around there which is full of "bats", and if you know where it is please let me know.

                  Nat - Sorry, I can't help you with the bats, but you may get some help from the Cheshire Bat Group.



                  Hope this helps

                        Thanks, I will certainly take advice and permission before I take any photographs.

                          On some of my wife's local walks we have rangers or RSPB people on hand (or other experts). I was asking a ranger about photographing certain creatures and he said he has a license to let him in the course of his professional activities (but can't do it for pleasure ... needs another license for that). I think he said there's a £25k fine if you are caught !

                            No 5 for me. Pity about the cars but sadly you probably had no control over them.
                            like the contrasting black &white, also the symmetry of the design.

                              HOW MUCH !!! ... surely not.Perhaps I am speaking out of turn as it where .. but I always thought you could photograph any bird anywhere .. how wrong can you get ( am I wrong ?). Please be gentle with replies.... I'm only learning. ( and it would be nice to be the right side of the law).
