Dittisham

A wonderful little village, full of charm and character. Well worth a visit, either by boat from Dartmouth or Totnes, or by car and foot! Probably the best time to shoot is early in the morning, when the river is undisturbed by passing boats and the reflections are at their best.

The first batch of shots were taken on a visit to Dartmouth in June 2003, on my Fuji S602z. The second group were taken in September 2007, with one of my Nikon DSLRs.

My feet are just itching to hop on the next plane to Dittisham. These shots are truly divine - thanks for sharing. Tracy!

Your composition is excellent. I've been to England three times but was not into photography so much at that time. After seeing your wonderful work, I am longing to return and try my skill. Please keep up the good work and thanks for sharing.

Best,

Beautifully composed and executed images Chris. I particularly love this gallery and the English Gardens. I've only been to England twice..(in the Spring)...but never saw any blue sky! Seeing it in your images! Great!

I agree with Lisa. Superb composition. Very romantic in your subject choice and framing decisions. Keep posting.
