spring in england I just returned from holiday in England. It was typical England, wet, gray, cold, and raining; did I mention that it was raining! Enjoy my humble attempts to capture some of the beautiful scenes .

Colin...I feel lucky to have already seen these! Just beautiful. So many pretty flowers. You really captured your trip and these few pictures don't even cut it. I really like the B&W church.

Nice ! Definitely reminds me of the "old country". As someone once said - ' it only rained twice last week - once for three days and once for four !' Now you know why it's so green ?!

Your wonderful photos don't suggest the presence of any inclement weather! Fruit and veg look a bit pricey though!

George everything was very expensive. The market was much cheaper than the co-op, and also better quality.
I was staying with family in Brize Norton, close to Oxford.
Everything was very green. I have shots of the flooding in the fields. I did a lot of composing without neutral gray skys . It was like carrying a gray card. Just meter the sky and shoot the shot.
Amy thanks for the comments. Sorry to put you through it twice.

Great set. My favorite is "A Poppy ... Remembers"
Really like the bloom in the midst of the green.
