I'm 49 year's young, married with 2 grown up lads, & have only recently got "into" taking photographs since taking up caravaning & touring this great country of ours about 6 years ago.Not a natural user of all mod cons so to speak, so this is all new to me.I have a huge back catalogue of photo's from Scotland to Cornwall & hope to get as many on as I can. I take it Wales & Scotland are ok on a "Pictures of England" site ? I will endevour to view as many photo's already on as well, & from what I have seen there are hundreds of stunning shots ... I have a lot of catching up to do. Thanks to those who have already passed positive comments on the ones I have recently uploaded. I'm off to France this weekend to see the sights of Normandy ( so no photo's for the site on this trip ! ) & hope to speak soon. All the best |

Do join in the forums , as Dave said we are a pretty amiable bunch and serious and the not so serious is all OK. Re some of your pics, location says Trethewey but description says Trethevey, I presume the shots are Trethevey as Trethewey is in the far south west inland on the Penwith Peninsula. If the shots indeed are at Trethevey, did you manage to visit the Kieve at St. Nectan's Glen, a stunning place to visit? Back to business, Welcome to POE and looking forward to more pics. |

POE (as we affectionately refer to Picture of England) accepts photos from the whole of the British Isles, which I refer to as the garden spot of Planet Earth. Keep coming around - it's a great site.

You are correct they were indeed taken at Trethevey .. I just thought Trethewey was a spelling mistake ! We did visit St. Nectans Glen, & though in itself a lovely place ... not too sure what to make of it as a "shrine" though ? |
