Nice impressions, Rosa !

Hi Ulrich, thank you for your kind comments.
I am answering on my phone as I cannot access ipernity on my computer. I get a message saying...the owner of ipernity.com has configured their website improperly so for protection I cannot connect to the website,........are you experiencing the same?

A very picturesque village scene and a delightful place to live.

It is indeed Maurice. Thank you for your kind comments.

A lovely set of picture postcard England how does the county meet it's obligations for building new houses ??? fields disappear at an alarming rate in this area, although further expansion of Groby is almost impossible I basically live on a large traffic island. No frost here this morning I've been on Kinver Edge very murky but not that cold, I hope you have a nice Sunday Rosalyn

I don't know the answer to that Peter, but here in my village we have stopped a planning application that would have almost joined the village with Wincanton. I expect they will try again though. Hope you enjoyed your visit to Kinver Edge. I will catch up with your gallery later.

Always worth a visit ~ Nicely taken

Yes a lovely village Nick. Cheers, Rosa.

A beautiful series of images Rosa and what a charming village this is. The light in these shots is really lovely. Enjoy the rest of your weekend

Thank you Carol. It was just as the sun was staring to go down. Always a lovely light then I find. Hope you have a good week also.

A beautiful English countryside that is reminiscent of a fairy tale!*********************
Have a great sunday!

Thank you Nouchet. It is an exceptional village and not always easily accessible which helps :)

Lovely series of a pretty village.

Thank you Jaap. Much appreciated.

That's a really pretty village................and you were lucky with the weather that day!

I love your composition in the the main image, to give prominence to that lovely memorial cross and the light has brought out some fine details in the stonework. The (really tidy) pond and the houses make a super background.

I like the images in the PiPs too, especially the lovely light in the seceond one.

I am able to access IP from my computer (an iMac), but IP still shows up as an unsecure site and I get occasional warnings about trackers and third-party cookies.

Thank you for your very kind comments Keith. My eldest daughter lives in the village and she can't believe her luck! It has a great community spirit. The pond is ancient and is beautifully kept.

I still cannot access ip on my computer. All I get is that their security certificate expired yesterday! Like you have seen, it has always displayed as an insecure site. It has taken me ages to type this message on my phone so I hope the problem is soon resolved. Thanks for your input.

Lovely images, beautiful insets. What a pretty setting and a lovely little town. I have never skated on a pond before, I think I would be too scared to chance it unless I was sure it was solid!

Thank you for your kind words Janet. No I have never skated on a pond either. I'm too old to risk it now!! Even at the skating rinks I just watch now ;-))

I'm sorry for the problem you are having, Rosa...like Keith, I am able to access IP from my iMac computer and the site shows up as insecure. I hope the problem will be solved soon.

Your pictures show a charming village indeed...your daughter is lucky to live there! I like the lightening on the memorial cross in the main picture and the frozen pond in the first of the Pips.
Have a nice new week!

Everything seems OK with this site today Adele, thankfully! My daughter always liked a certain cottage in this village and couldn't believe her luck when she saw it for sale. It needs a lot of work. That's why I am up there so much at the moment :))
I wish you a nice week too.

Wunderschöne Impressionen von einem beschaulichen Ort, Rosa.
Wünsche Dir eine gute Woche
Erich

Thank you very much Erich.
Enjoy what is left of this week :)
Best regards, Rosa.

Very nice neighborhood view, Rosalyn. Lovely composition and sharp colors. … and light and shadow play.

Thank you for your very kind comments Frank. Much appreciated.

A beautiful series, Rosa. The low angle light really sets them off nicely.

Thank you George. The low light worked very well. Caught it just right.

A cracking series from this so very beautiful village Rosa. The light and composition of all the images is wonderful.

Many thanks for your kind comments Doug. The light was just right, but my goodness, it was cold! We didn't stay out for too long :)

Three well composed images, Rosa, with great play between light and shadow. Cheers, Joe

Thank you for your kind comment Joe. The late afternoon light worked very well. Cheers, Rosa.

What an agreable place once again ....
Very beautiful picture, Rosalyn ! *******
Have a lovely new week.

Thank you Christiane. I am often in this village now, since my daughter lives there.
I wish you a good week too. Rosa.

Ja,,de hoge ligging zorgt voor vorst,,,,mooie foto dat kruis ziet erg antiek uit,,,,
bij mij hier hebben we ook een dorp op 320 m hoogte (hoogste van NL) s'winters als de temp overal zo rond de plus 3 graden is en er valt bij mij regen dan valt er in dat dorp op 320 m sneeuw,,,dat is leuk omdat maar 20km van mij af is,,,zo kunnen wij ook wat genieten van sneeuw

That is high for NL Fred. Must be able to see it for miles (or km)! I see there is a lot of snow on mainland Europe. None here yet, but a nice bright day today.

Nice series of images in wonderful pale winter sunlight and I particularly like the composition in the main image Rosa.

Thank you very much for your kind comments Roger.

The low winter light is fabulous, it makes the colours shine and deepens the shadows!
