Hi folks,

Today I am going to show you this photo... a photo that I have manage to get myself and my son lost in some place in between Morcott and Seaton after taking tons of shots in this place.

It was getting dark and I was pretty scare to be honest... drive for a long time and still haven't see anyone around but tall grasses! It seem like the road is going on and on and on. Until I manage to drive up a very narrow road... where apperently it is the intersection of Seaton and Uppingham, there is a small villages, I stopped my car and get out with my little boy to asked for direction. Someone look big and scary but when he smile, gosh... believe it or not, that's the sweetest smile I ever seen in that day, he is the star... hahahaha, he save me! He show me where to go in the map and told me which road I have to beware of fast car and so on... I was so thankful for him. :D

Back to this photo, after all the drama... with this photos in my digital camera, I feel is all worth it... lol... I just can't believe myself doing such a silly thing... hahahah, all I want is to see if I can find a place to take this shot and taking all the short cut without remembering which one I took, well.. this teach me a lesson... lol...

Seaton Viaduct is located in between Seaton and Marcott, I dont' know how long it went for... but I do know that it look "Grant" and that's why I have to take it, it is a peace of great architecture.

It is worth getting lost for, but when you are with your son you feel responsible.

Sweety the best places are found when you get lost in the countryside. We do it on purpose but we are both grown-ups.
A very enjoyable landscape here and that viaduct is impressive.

Lovely layered composition and rich saturation here Sweety.

I think it was worth getting lost for this shot!

I love the naturalness of the sky here. Well done my friend, I'm envious of your travels!

Hi Sweety

A marvellous colour contrast, between the yellow stubble & blue sky. Good sharpness & framing. No upload from me today, as I'm in Jinhae, for the cherry blossum.

hi sweety , neat little story here, sounds like all is well now, this is a neat shot, this bridge is incredible, do you have a closer view of it?

strong contrast on the land that provides strong colours, even if it looks a bit too much as the sky is not PPed the same, well that's what i guess
however an excellent POV to show this beatiful landscape and the great viaduc

Hi Sweety,
It looks like you were destined to get lost, because this photo is stunning! I certainly wouldn't mind getting lost here :) The composition is beautiful, there is so much that fits into the one frame - the hills, the trees, the wonderful architecture and the beautiful colours. The natural sunlight gives a touch of warmth to the whole picture. Well done.

Hi Sweety, Yes, worth getting lost for but I can imagine your relief to find your way home! We have become lost several times in Britain -it is not hard to do!
This is a lovely scene. I like the many interesting coloured layers.Well done! Cheers, Pat.

Wow,
Is amazing.
I love the colors,the golden grass,the bridge.
A beautiful composition with such a mamy elements.

Great image of the "suspended" road and lovely architecture of the bridge, crossing through the wonderfully colored image. It's simply charming and it does give a sense of wonder...
Congrats dear "puffy"! Have a great Sunday!
