Hi Patti, a shame the gate is a bit "worse for wear", but still an excellent shot, extremely sharp on my screen and I like the detail picked up in the wall, and shadows on the mountains. Good work, keep 'em comin'!!!

Paul :)

EDIT...and of course a great border too!

Beautiful picture. I`m guessing that hill in the backround is further away than it looks here as I can see lines that look like fields? I have always been mystifed by how these rocky walls are built and don`t fall down. Good shot Patti!

Patti, 'poor owd Bob', Breaking a fence that way must have caused serious injuries. Think we have to send him a postpard to wish him a soon recovery (lol).
Beautiful image again! Regards, Cornelius

Maybe we all lay down in that beautiful grass to take a nap? I like that wall a lot, I have that special feeling for old stone walls.

well, I've been reduced to one-word titles lately...so you beat me there!! Love the angle on this one...it really accentuates the fence and that it has seen better days. Nicely done!!

Sorry to all...I haven't been commenting as much as I would like to lately. I'm a 9 to 5er again (actually more like 8:15 to 7:30 these days!!) Don't worry, I still see all of your wonderful posts, if only for a second.

I just love those stone/brick walls in the country side of England Patti, it works so much better than old boring barb wire... Great country shot you have posted here.
