It was like a summers day today in the Borders, this spot was near to the village of Yetholm, famous for the gypsy kings. Could hardly believe the light and the blue sky.

Nice composition and you're right Peter, the blue sky is fantastic. This is a very well framed shot and very sharp with good depth of field. Well done.

Nice composition. Peter! A wee bit edgy on the left side, but I still like the two halves. Great colours as well. The frame, well... Enjoy the weather while it lasts!

Certainly right about the light and I am glad you were able to go out and capture it for us, Peter. Beautiful lanscape as always. Well done!

You're right, the blue sky and lighting is excellent. Nice to see the sheep grazing in the field. I miss these types of scenes in Canada.

Hello Peter,
A great old tree skillfully captured! Beautiful composition... the sky is sooo natural and the rolling farm landscape in the back completes your lovely image

WOW! VERY SPECIAL POV. Superb colors and look. Really all is AMAZING.

Hi Petere,
Nice shot. I like that lopsided tree on the left and how the hills go up a slight incline to the right. Nice catch.

Peter, you've captured this beautifully. The tree literally pops out.

Almost a painting, as you say the sky is beautiful.

Hi Peter,

Beautiful view. Excellent composition and work.

Hi Peter,
What a view! I love this composition with the wonderfully shaped tree playing the main part, the great blue sky and the very small sheep in the distance. And of course the hills.

Another "cracker" Peter, and particularly of great interest to me as my Mom was raised there. She talks about Kirk Yetholm and Town Yetholm, and many of her childhood memories. She is now 93, and lives in Cairo. Thanks for sharing such a touching and wonderful photo.
