This England . Photo Gallery by penny roots at pbase.com

This England .

This royal throne of kings , this sceptered isle ,
This earth of majesty , this seat of Mars ,
This other Eden , demi paradise ;
This fortress built by nature for herself ,
Against infection and the hand of war ,
This happy breed of men , this little world ,
This precious stone set in the silver sea ,
Which serves it in the office of a wall ,
Or as a moat defensive to a house ,
Against the envy of less happier lands ,
This blessed plot , this earth , this realm , this England .

( from Richard II by William Shakespeare )

Guest		22-Jun-2007 10:17
You have captured the very best of England with a range of seasons and landscapes. Obviously you have worked hard to be in the right place at the right time and have then used excllent technique and composition to produce these outstanding pictures.

Guest		31-May-2007 00:50
Makes me very homesick! Great photos. Brought a HUGE smile to my face, especially with the Shakespeare quote. :)

Guest		07-May-2007 05:32
I'm glad you were able to find some areas without drunks, louts, criminals and people with no manners and less breeding. I'm glad I left that place, even if some of the scenery is magnificent.

I Love your country- I love its quirks, its mannerisms and atmosphere..... as a Canadian, I feel closer to things British than to American..... Your galleries convey how I see your country- And why we as Canadians hold England in such high regard..... And Oh yes, your Beer is very good as well.

Guest		26-Jan-2005 23:57
Your gallery brought me pleasure even before I had the opportunity to view it. While glancing through the listings of "Popular Galleries" its title immediately caught my eye, and the words of the immortal speech that inspired it came pouring into my memory. The exquisite strength in your images of "this other Eden" makes them a perfect match to the text, and a joy to behold. Thank you for the pictures, the pleasure, and the words. Best wishes, Shoshanna Moser http://www.pbase.com/w_d_p/shoshanna
