A pretty Welsh winter

I like the colour #3 (well I liked them all first time too)

I like # 3 best without the colour and I'd keep the gate shut - to keep out the world

Hmmm... work. I'd forgotten what that is. You are right though - jobs are tricky around here. Fine if you have a standard professional job such as nurse, teacher, solicitor, snow-plough operator. But everything else is just basic, and not very well-paid, jobs. House prices are reasonable though, and there are some very nice properties around here.

Are you pressing your nose against the estate agent windows now?

I trained as an histology technician in the NHS but the pay is so awful I couldnt afford the cheaper housing! I was born in Swansea and my dads from Tredegar (my mums English...so we dont talk about her LOL).

Thanks, Glenn. I thought the problem with colour for this one was that the bottom 2/3 are pretty colourless, and the sky isn't. Not sure.

Gasp! That's pretty, too! I can possibly see the frosty snow that's in the front hedge, better. However, now it's lost it's quiet but powerful voice.

Yup! I've thought about it some more and, now, (in my opinion, of course) the story isn't clear - my eye won't rest, quite as well. I'm going to read on and see what others said.

Also, #2 - the light is gorgeous and I can see, hear, feel the wind. #3 I can hear the river. I can feel the cold and hear the river. Photo essay? =]

What a brilliant line - I really love that. If you don't mind, I'm going to use that in future. I know what you mean about going through the gate into the wider world. I thought of that when I composed the shot. My house is in the little cluster at the top left of the shot. Nice spot

It's my turn to be jealous!
