Well,you`ll know it`s far from the best that Wales has to offer then

Murdography In reply to JonnyGoodboy [2010-02-23 21:32:58 +0000 UTC]

I meant that I lived in Wales, and sadly havent been around Gwent. I was shooting mostly around carmarthenshire and that area, is it really the best?

JonnyGoodboy In reply to Murdography [2010-02-23 23:00:48 +0000 UTC]

I haven`t spent much time in Carmarthenshire to be honest and never been shooting there,Gwent isn`t the most scenic of Counties so that`s what I meant by you didn`t miss much

Murdography In reply to JonnyGoodboy [2010-02-24 05:00:33 +0000 UTC]

Ahhh, Yeah, the coast around there is really nice to shoot, and the landscape out towards Llandilo is nice, but its not the best im sure : )

reminiscent of a local tower to me not nearly as old and currently under refurbishment back to original.

Our local tower was built as part of the WPA ( works project act) during the great depression we also had the second longest stone wall built in the world at the same time.

Wow, now this is right up my street (not literally unfortunately !)
Excellent mono work, just working my way through your incredible gallery and this is one of many that stood out.
Excellent job with the clouds.

Thank you Fuzzy,I was actually back there this evening funny enough and took 40 odd shots
Downside is my main PC has gone down tonight (typing this on 5 year old backup) with all of them on and it`ll probably have to be sent away

fuzzy In reply to JonnyGoodboy [2009-04-09 07:44:28 +0000 UTC]

Oh no ! Hope you manage to recover all your files. What a nightmare. Look forward to seeing your new shots of the tower.

You know I remember back in the Summer of `07 when the Ranchman and I were striking up our DA friendship,you were one of the very next people to start watching me and I recall you saying something along the lines "I`ll add you but you have to promise to take more Castle shots for me ok?"...something like that anyway

This is another one for you then Eve,thanks for enjoying

AdamsWife In reply to JonnyGoodboy [2008-12-29 22:04:19 +0000 UTC]

Even though you haven't photographed many castles lately, I'm still thoroughly enjoying your version of the many places in the UK that I never saw in all the 30 years I lived there, and most probably never will.
