Thank you for the link to this Ian (only just spotted it) :) Really enjoyed looking at all of your super shots of the scenes around Shropshire. I have only lived in Shropshire for just over 5 years, I am a Yorkshire lass and am just begining to explore this lovely county with my camera. Thank you for sharing all of these lovely scenes. Kind regards Sue :)
