That was a really interesting story Ade. So which big city did you move to? Still in England?
This looks like a really nice scene and I just love the way you get so much rich colour into all your images. Oh I'm so excited....I even see a sheep. Are those white dots sheep in the distant green fields too? I really like the composition in this shot. Is one of those houses the one ou grew up in? Well you opned this can of worms and now I want to know the rest of the story. Great shot. Cheers - Ann :)

I've lived in Manchester, Preston, Newcastle and now in Leeds. All in the north of the country.
Leeds is about 45 miles from "home", on the other side of the pennines, a range of hills which run the length of England.
I really had to close up the levels on this - but once done, the golden colours in the foreground sprang out at me!
All the sheep you can see, except the foreground one, are in Eddie Cowperthwaite's fields - I used to do loads of work for him in my teens and know those fields as well as anything.
The furthest sheep field is where we used to play cricket, have a sports day and dam up the stream. It's a huge thing! Even has 2 ox-bow lakes.
You can't see our house, it'd hidden behind the biggest on in the shot - Town Head. That's where the big land-owner lives. All the landexcept one is owned by him. AMazing in the 21st century!
A classic piece of England though, been in existance longer then the USA and is pretty unchanged since victorian times.

Nice to see your home village.
Best regards, Chris

Thanks ade, All very interesting. It's like the land that time forgot. To have kept so much of it's original charm into the 21st century is wonderful. Great story.
Cheers - Ann :)

And all due to Ade working his socks off in those fields.

Hey Ade, do I detect a touch of melancholy here. Not surprised if there is cos it is a beautiful place especially to have spent your formative years there. Fabulous saturation if it was a dull day (no fiters used?). The image has all your hallmarks to it - great composition, fantastic detail and that wow factor. Well done.
