Linda-mary Sigley's Comments

Watford High Street
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(19th October 2013)

Shops closed? No one on the High Street. Unusual. I do like the pattern in the brick roadway. Even the simplest things in England are beautiful each in its own way. America is just "get it done and get on with it." Sad.

Trouble finding grub in winter, ha ha? Cute photo.

Watford
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(19th October 2013)

Excellent composition. Fascinating photo. Yes, looks like a question mark--probably questioning why so few people there attend their parish church. What a shame. England used to be known as the "Isle of Saints."

Vicarage Road Cemetery, Watford, Hertfordshire.

A little child--possibly she lost her parent. Yes, a thought provoking image. Excellent.

Watford Hornet

Linda-mary Sigley(19th October 2013)

Oops! It's a hornet! Even stranger. Here we call pest control if we have trouble with hornets. Why a hornet, pray tell?

I agree with Dave. How old is the Green Man? Is he supposed to be an elf or wood sprite? I'm posting pic to Facebook to get members for POE and maybe a couple of tourists.

Linda-mary Sigley(5th November 2012)

Were the soldiers simply visiting or were they quartered at the castle? We once knew a man whose surname was Cholmondeley; he owned a restaurant in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Linda-mary Sigley(7th October 2012)

Great capture & focal point. Oops! The OT book of Wisdom was removed from the King James Bible. Surprised the inscription was not done away with in the 17th C.

5 stars

Very nice. The old clergyhouse appears to have a recent thatch job as the thatched roof is in perfect condition. Really good capture, Martin.

Banbury, Oxfordshire
4 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(7th October 2012)

Interesting photo. Hard to believe it's heavy overcast and bare trees in May. It appears as to be still wintertime in Banbury.

The Rabbit Room where the 'Inklings' met.
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(5th October 2012)

Haughmond Abbey, Well House
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(5th October 2012)

Oh, much clearer view.

Gourdon, Scotland
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(13th August 2012)

Another good pic. Looks as though there might be a fisheries industry here. I see a marina in foreground, but is there a rather curved pier in background or connector bridge?

Crovie, Scotland
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(13th August 2012)

Good composition. Interesting pic. How do vehicles get there? I don't see a road exiting Crovie, unless it's hidden beyond the hill.

A beautiful ruin hidden in some woods at Steinmanhill, Aberdeenshire
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(13th August 2012)

Love it. A secret place only a hiker could find. A watchtower or mill?

Linn o Dee, Aberdeenshire
5 stars

Linda-mary Sigley(11th August 2012)

A ferry? It's a quay so there must be water at other side. I see gorgeous trees and an interesting piece of machinery which seems to have a toothed winch. Picturesque.

Lavenham, Suffolk
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(11th August 2012)

Extraordinary work. Blended exposures give the appearance of great age under brooding skies. What is a "centre monument?" We, at least in the west, don't have such monuments.

Lavenham, Suffolk
5 stars

Cute. 19th C. gingerbread added to peaks of roof; next house appears a bit tipsy, LOL.

Linda-mary Sigley(29th April 2012)

Looking towards the front of the Church.
5 stars
Linda-mary Sigley(2nd April 2012)

Here we would say one is looking at the back of the church. To us the altar is always termed the front of the church. It is ingrained into Americans. This is a fine photo.
