One thousand more?

Tell me to stop if you don't like these occasional "Picture Posts".



Here is another view of the lovely Ogden Island that sits in the Derbyshire Wye half a mile downstream from the bustling market town of Bakewell.  It is beautiful even with the naked trees of early winter.  When the trees get their leaves back and the flies are hatching, this entire section will be covered in the rings of rising fish...

  3. As anonymous said, a good portion of my fishing outings are comprised of enjoying the beauty of nature. Your photo above is beautiful and I sure hope you continue to take us along with you on your trips via the photos.

  5. I really like the picture posts so keep them coming... although they do give rise to a certain wistfulness as I sit at my desk on a cold, grey day in the midst of the off season.
