A lovely collection, and definitely worth putting the boots on. Hope to see more from your travels.

Nice set, only missing the steam train!

Fabulous photos of a beautiful area, thanks Ralph.

Brings back memories for me, too. I did my studenting in York and we used to go walking or orienteering in the Dales a bit and I loved the whole area. Never saw it with snow, though. I did the 3 Peaks a couple of times, also several years and several kilograms ago, and found it damned hard work both times!

Shots 5 to 7 are nice Ralph

Lovely set Ralph. Love the last two with the viaduct in the distance. Must get up there myself sometime. I think I may leave it to the summer mind - those shots of yours with the snow and frozen water definitely give the impression of freezing your nut$ off up there!

Hi there Everyone!

Thank you for all the kind comments.

Paul - It wasn't as cold as it looked as I was lugging a big rucksack full of camera gear - I was just glad that I didn't have full frame gear to carry.

John - I was at York between 1992 and 1995, but spent a lot more time under the Dales than walking through them, as I spent most weekends with the Caving club.

Beagletorque - The flying scotsman is supposed to be going across at some point soon, but all that went across when I was there was the normal commuter trains. I suppose that I could just photoshop it in afterwards and enter it into a competiton if I change the Exif to show it's a Nikon!

Alf - Thanks!

MrsT - I hope to be putting the boots on again soon - maybe the Lake district next.

Cheers,

Ralph.
