I'll be sure to come prepared. I encountered all of that "lack of convenience" when traveling through county Donegal in Ireland, so I know what to do!

And as for the Lake District, Northumberland, Wales and Scotland, you will LOVE it there. Take your camera - you will shoot LOTS of photos, believe me!

Here are some examples, taken in 2002...

Lake Windermere in the Lake District:

A friend we stayed with in this little village in Wales (Peter, you should recognize this!):

A stream in Northumberland:

This one's for JJ - from Scotland:

Yes, the person in the photo showed it to us. It is indeed a beautiful area. We stayed there several days visiting. I could have stayed forever!!!

A bit younger than JJ... LOL

Nice shot Bruce and it seems to have worked out OK, even without filters but I suppose you can compensate in Photoshop.

Thanks Adrian. I did the best I could

Would've had to do a hell of a lot less had I used a polarizer though! Would've also helped had I been shooting raw back then.
Cheers,
Bruce
