Watching nature take its course, from the top of a hill in a rural area of northern England......
Here I write about this, that and the other; posts are about whatever catches my eye, or captures my imagination: my take on the world usually comes from a rural perspective, but I make no promises.......
I have a bit of a ‘magpie’ mind, it is eclectic and has a preference for collecting bright shiny things, so all bright shiny contributions are welcome as comments or emails........
We are a family of four; my self, Mr Uphilldowndale (Mr Uhdd), and our two boys, Tom aged 16 and Joe 14. In addition there's Dandy the cat and 5 maverick chickens and last but not least a young dog named Spud who has his own post every week 'Spud on Sunday'.
I love the landscape here and the wildlife, I have a special interest in lumps of rock, as you will see if you stay around for a while.......
Welcome to this blog, I hope you find something of interest, and if you do, please call again; next time you are passing.
Heather Uphilldowndale
maybe the next one will be an ode to Spud……
Oh my – don’t you love the way collaborations shift perspective?
Jack Gibbons has good sense. There’s nothing like your foggy hills and dales to soothe my weekend.
Beautiful.
Just gorgeous.
Well deserved and well chosen! xx
Wow what a complement! That’s what is so good about Flickr, sharing what we do!
This reminded me that I have about 3 years worth of comments that I never made on your posts. I won’t say them all now, just congratulate you on your collaboration!
Oh, forgot- Congratulations!
What a wonderful set of photographs he has chosen. The whole thing was delightful and must make you very proud. I enjoyed the music too.
That’s very beautiful….mmmmm
That was a lovely way to begin my day… thank you! I loved your “tumbleweed” comment… I can so relate!!
Congratulations! Photo/music compositions and collaboration ~ terrific!
Wow! What a compliment. I’ve listened to some other things on Jack Gibbons’s website, and he’s an amazing pianist. He picked some lovely photos of yours. Great to see so many good ones together.
Feeling transported to the beauty and wonder that surrounds you and that is a good feeling. Loved seeing the images together.
