    Into my heart an air that kills
    From yon far country blows:
    What are those blue-remembered hills,
    What spires, what farms are those?

    It is the land of lost content,
    I see it shining plain,
    The happy highways where I went
    and cannot come again.

    (A.E. Houseman - A Shropshire Lad)

    You've caught those hills beautifully.

      Nice, thought your heather might be in flower, up here it has a way to go yet
      Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

        Thanks John , it is a magical place especially early in the morning . I went up to try and get some Red Grouse shots at sunrise

          Lovely use of the road to lead the eye into the image.

              Good composition and the receding hills are nicely done. Shame there's no sky interest but you can only shoot what's in front of you.

              Cheers,
              John
