'Sun and Moon'

An evening stroll along Leyburn Shawl rewards us with a beautifully multi-coloured sky over the Wensleydale hills.

Trees silhouetted from the fading sun frame the moon, their branches reaching out..

Happy #BlueSkyMonday!

Spotted this lovely diorama in a dry-stone walled garden on a walk through the quiet town of Leyburn in the #YorkshireDales, how quaint.

Happy Tuesday!

Love the irony in this - seen at Leyburn Library: wedging the wheel of a coffin carrier that carried the Leyburn dead is a copy of Leyburn Life..

'Ure Turn 2'

Sunday #StunDay!

The River Ure winding its way through the stunning Yorkshire Dales in an almost J. Constable pallete.
The gently moving water distorts the tree reflections nicely.

'Highlighter'

On a warm overcast afternoon, a sunbeam breaks through the clouds to illuminate a stretch of Wensleydale farmland.

Penhill in the background is huge but appears tiny because it's far away 🤭

Massive lack of rain meant the River Ure was reduced to a trickle meaning you could walk along the bed!

This wide-angle, eye-level shot showcases the breathtaking panorama from the Leyburn Shawl in Wensleydale, possibly named because legend says Mary Queen of Scots dropped her shawl here while fleeing the nearby Bolton Castle. Under a vibrant blue sky filled with scattered white cumulus clouds, a sprawling, rolling green landscape unfolds. The composition is divided diagonally by a prominent grassy hillside in the foreground on the right, which curves downward toward the left. This foreground hill is covered in vibrant green grass, showing a mix of lush patches and worn, slightly uneven turf with subtle hints of yellow wildflowers scattered about. Moving up the crest of this hill on the right, a line of dense, leafy green deciduous trees stretches toward the upper right quadrant. Nestled near these trees are a few scattered wooden benches and small stone structures, providing places for visitors to sit and admire the expansive view. In the distance along the ridge, a couple of people can be seen sitting on the grass, enjoying the serene environment. Further back along the top edge, a stone wall and a wooden fence run parallel to the tree line, demarcating the edge of the walking trail. To the left of the sloping hill, the landscape drops into a wide, fertile valley. A winding grey asphalt road snakes through the lower left section, with a few vehicles visible driving along it. The valley floor is a patchwork of emerald green fields and pastures, divided by hedgerows and dotted with clusters of trees, small farm buildings and cottages. In the far distance, the massive, flat-topped green Penhill, an icon of the Yorkshire Dales topography, rises majestically against the horizon, its slopes textured with a mix of fields & wooded areas. The bright, clear sunlight casts soft shadows across the undulating terrain, enhancing the depth and vibrant colours of the countryside. The overall atmosphere is peaceful, open, and characteristic of a classic, scenic British summer day. Leyburn Shawl is a renowned limestone scar and panoramic viewpoint situated in Wensleydale, Yorkshire. This landscape photo captures a sweeping, sun-drenched view looking along the sloping back end of the ridge under a bright, vibrant summer sky. The composition is heavily defined by a dramatic diagonal hillside that slopes downward from the upper left quadrant toward the lower right. This vast expanse of rolling terrain is blanketed in lush, vibrant green grass, showing subtle variations in texture and shade from the bright sunlight. Scattered across this steep pasture are several mature deciduous trees, standing individually or clustered in small, loose groups. A prominent, leafy green tree stands slightly left of the centre, casting a soft, faint shadow on the grass below it. Further down the slope to the right, a couple of larger, spreading trees frame the lower section of the hillside. Higher up the incline, toward the left horizon, a dense line of thick, darker green woodland forms a natural boundary that follows the crest of the ridge. Beyond the immediate green slope, the landscape opens up into a vast, sprawling valley that stretches into the far distance under a bright blue sky. This distant valley floor is a patchwork of agricultural fields, divided by hedgerows and dotted with tiny clusters of trees, characteristic of the Yorkshire Dales countryside. The far-off hills and low ridges rise gently against the horizon, fading into soft shades of blue and muted green due to atmospheric perspective. Above this picturesque rural scene, the sky occupies roughly the upper half of the frame. It is a brilliant, deep azure blue, filled with scattered, puffy white cumulus clouds. These clouds are brightly illuminated by the sun on their tops, while their bases show soft grey shadows, adding depth and a dynamic sense of movement to the daytime sky. The overall lighting is bright, clear, and natural, highlighting the vivid colors of the rural English landscape.

Redmire Force is a multi‑drop waterfall on the River Ure, a couple of miles downstream from Aysgarth Falls. They sit just south of the village of Redmire, close to Castle Bolton and Leyburn.
