Nice. If I wanna take pictures as good as that, which brand of skills should I buy?

Thanks for the tip. Random unrelated question, know any good camera repair places?

Not sure of the brand name but something that helps you to see pretty things where you are and something that helps you to actively look for pretty things would be my recommendation.

The Constable eye/brain combination comes highly recommended.

What about that parasitic thingy that wobbles your eyes and makes you do things? You'd just need to ward of these pesky birds and refrain from climbing too high, but I bet everything looks funky!

Yep, glad people got it.

For some reason I read grotesque not once but twice, and even went to Google to look up and see if perhaps grotesque had some literal meaning, either related to the architecture or the way the land is.

After my exhaustive research, I think I can safely conclude there is nothing grotesque about this picture. In fact, I'd even say it's picturesque.

Did you check all the roofs for the hidden grotesque?

Thank you, that's what gargoyles are or something right? I knew it was somewhere up there. The old mind does not work how it used to.

Peakturesque even

That shot would be picturesque any morning

This picture just makes me want to go out and sit in nature in one of my favourite countries #1. Being Japan and #2 being the UK

Have we reached peak “district” yet?

It's tricky. This is England after all, and it's barely out of winter.

It's not even raining (any more, or yet), so it almost counts as sunny.

We've come on holiday by mistake.

This looks like a nice road for a rally car to go down.
