This is one of the highest places on Dartmoor, 5 miles north of Princetown, very open, very wild, and very cold, not the place to be on a snowy day . . .

Well I know its the wrong area but I immediately thought "Wuthering Heights". It looks a bleak and, well, wuthering, landscape but you have captured a warmth in the colours. I am most impressed with this. Good work :)

Great shot...looks like the curve of the earth, not scary at all though (except maybe the dark clouds). Gorgeous image, well done.

Looks like snow may not be too far away judging from those clouds..we're supposed to get some today :( :( :(

Great pic of a very desolate place.

"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon

Good image Mark. Such a lonely looking place but you managed a fine shot here my friend. The clouds do look threatening.

What a wodnerful scene. I like the way the stones lead me to the distant golden hills. The detail is really nice and I like your choice of framing.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

I wonder how big the wall was before it came down.

Hello Mark....This is another fine picture of Dartmoor...Your camera work certainly captures the remotness of Dartmoor, yet you are still able to show off the outstanding natural beauty...I am afraid this picture has twisted my arm to make a visit....Well done....All the best....Mick.
