View from the Footpath

This was part of my walk yesterday, my regular walk. In the distance is Wales but it was a very dull dreary day so I couldn't see far into the distance.
I've been getting a bit frustrated with the limited options of walking routes without taking the car somewhere ( and we're not allowed to do that) but Dione @sangwann has made me realise how lucky I am. Dione like many others can only see buildings when they walk from their houses but I have all this beautiful countryside on my doorstep, and lots of birds (and sheep). Even the same route changes with the the light, the time of day, the weather and of course the seasons. Also, I feel very safe when I'm out because I hardly ever see another person.

Beautiful landscape, Sue.
Like you, we are very privileged too. Rural landscapes around us. We sometimes take the car (we are allowed to) for a short trip in the neighbourhood.

Looks like a lovely place to walk. Living in suburbia we have a mixture of lots of houses and buildings, plus a few, small, still unbuilt areas and some trails that run along ravines which can't really be built on. One can hear birds, see the occasional wildlife, and get a feeling of being out in nature. All too often however, what would be a lovely bucolic shot is ruined by a construction crane looming in the distance or the glare of an electric sign intruding through a gap in the trees.

Lovely walk down the side of that wood...we seem to go on the same old walks depending how far we feel like walking but we like to meet other people on the way. We always social distance but it’s good to chat a bit. Sometimes we go via fields buy when it’s wet & very muddy we go round by the village.

I feel your pain and itch to be out and about. On the positive side, yes you have beautiful country landscape. Try to enjoy the walk , see the beauty and hang in there with the photography. It will get better....( and I meant the amount of restrictions, not your shots they are wonderful)

You have such a beautiful view, and it is nice that you can get outdoors and share your walk with us :). Today is such a cold and windy day in my area that I am staying indoors and looking at photos that remind me that warmer days are coming.

From where I sit I'm loving your views. Takes me back to our last trip to the UK 10 years ago. I understand though, I'm getting a little tired of not being able to travel and photograph around the state even! My last words to one of my college tutors last year was I was hoping to broaden my horizons in 2021 beyond my local area........hopefully that will be the case soon!
