Church in the Trees.

A lovely view from one of my geocaching walks around my valleys. I have to admit that the walk and climb to this point was pretty strenuous, and with my current health wasn't tackled in the past week.

I had park by this church in a little village and took a track down through the trees to find a cache in the bottom. A very steep climb followed, picking off more chases during the climb. To get my breath back I stop to survey the scene and capture the moment. It wasn't long before I made the return walk knowing I had to climb back up through the trees to reach the car. Why do I do it, well that's what my children shout. View with the dark surround if you have time.

Thank you for your comments and FAV's yesterday it put the town view on the PP page, unexpected.
