Travelling Around England in Photographs

I'm launching this today to show some of the photographs I've taken over many years (more than I like to admit to, but over fifty years) of travelling around England, sometimes on business, sometimes on holiday. I'm based in the North, just outside the Lake District, but have also lived in Lancashire and the Midlands as well as for a time having an office in London.

I'm not a professional photographer, and quite often I'm disappointed with my own shots. But I'll display here some of the pictures that I like from various parts of the country. If you like these why not also take a look at my other blog which is chiefly about the North of England, the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District.

So here goes, and we'll start with a picture of the River Lune at Kirkby Lonsdale, Cumbria. John Ruskin, in the 19th century described the scene below as one of the most beautiful views in England, "and therefore in the world". Who am I to disagree with him?
