    Absolutely beautiful - the villages, countryside, farm animals, wildlife, historical ruins, country lanes. You captured it all in one walk!
  • WOW ! what a fabulous tour of the East Witton area ! Beautiful photography all around! Fantastic footage of the nest of baby birds, all the lambs, and the baby rabbits so enchanting in the sunlight -- All is always well in the country side of England.

  • Another lovely walk - my sister and I just got back from a week in West Yorkshire, weather was fab, we got to York, Bridlington, and Liverpool. Sadly I couldn't convince her to take one of these walks, but we had the best time, and we both want to move to Yorkshire
