    More fantastic photos to choose from and so difficult to choose but here goes.....

    1. Sheal ........"Druidale" Lovely composition and well balanced with the road going into the distance framed by gorgeous green colours.

    2. KindredSpirit...."Lough behind my House" Another lovely composition. A serene and beautiful shot.

    3. Victoria....."High Tide" A lovely shot almost like a beautiful postcard.

    And the votes from Wigan are...........

    1 - Trunky Green lane . Where does it lead too , mystery ?
    2- Victoria High Tide . Reminds me of lazy summer days on the Algarve
    3 - Sheal Down to the sea . A classic British seaside bay photo

    Runner up Marley , barley mow , how summery is that photo ! Makes you want to lie down and chew a stalk of corn.

    merci Mesdames et Messieurs
    That concludes the Wigan vote

      1st Sheal.....Druidale.....The road and stone wall draw the eye into the distance, all beautifully framed by the tree.

      2nd.....Woo.....Rochester Cathedral garden.....Love the contrast between the bright colours of the roses and the more muted greens and greys of the background.

      3rd.....Victoria.....High Tide.....Just a lovely, sunny, coastal landscape.

      I have gone back and looked so many times I am exhausted but have chosen three which all have the same attraction for me ... sharp, clear photography and stunningly peaceful vistas ... and all are places where I would love to wander ..

      1st ... Druidale by Sheal
      2nd ... The Green Lane by Trunky
      3rd ... The Woodland Garden by Marley Farley

      1 - Sheal. Druidale. Held my attention first time I saw it. A good composition inviting the viewer to follow the road.

      2- Trunky. Green Lane. A place I'd like to be. Another good composition drawing the viewer into the scene.

      3 - Woo. Gardeners Corner. I like this because it's a very personal corner of the world.
