Did I ever tell you that my mum was born in Dore not far from here. Was in Derbyshire then ... I think boundary changes put it in Yorkshire (or was it the other way round?). Anyway a very fine shot, Dave!

Gotcha' thanks Andy'...on Dore'....yes if I remember correctly the Sheffield boundary was extended around 1974.. and swalllowed up parts of Derbyshire.. // Thanks for compliment to the picture.. keep well youth,. and Good wishes too - from > Dj.

I think my mum would be happy if she says she is from Hallamshire!

Yeah'.... the west end is definitely the most desirable in many ways,.. // Dj.

Beautiful landscape image; like all the different green colours.

Cheers Jaap'.. the golden copper colours should be along shortly.. Keep well and go steady - from Dj.

Wonderful this.

Happy wednesday!

Thanks'..... Annemarie'..... and a ''Good day'' to you too - Cheers from > Dj.

Yes, it was so.
My great grandfather owned HHB Sugg (probably just as well as seeing that was his name!) the sports retailers and he made enough of the folding-stuff (or wonga, if you prefer), to be able to better himself and move first to Dore and then later to Bakewell. We're talking 1920s and 30s here but I fondly recall getting his take on all sorts of things, especially cricket, which runs in the family (he died at a great age when I was 20, so I do vividly recall his very interesting views).

A wonderful landscape captured in beautiful diffused light...........I love the early signs of autumnal colours coming through amongst the trees. Be good to go back in a week or so for another shot David.

Great work my friend.

Many thanks Keith.,. yes I'll return shortly and take another walk about,.. need a bit.o.sun tho' to filter through the trees... Cheers !... and keep well ... from Dj.

Like moss cushions seen from here !

'Moss cushions'' ,..haa' yes very good Isabel..... // I hope that things are going well over your way - keep well - and 'Good wishes' to you - from > Dj..

Superbe paysage vallonné !
HFF et Bon weekend. Amitiés
