A very HFF and I hope you all have a peaceful weekend and that the weather is kind to you, so get out with those cameras and enjoy all the bright and cheery daffodils that have appeared across the countryside :) :)

..... I have used Poster Edge effect here just for abit of fun and it looks great on Black so just press L :) :)

It's always a lovely walk taking in views along the River Ribble from the village of Ribchester and as you walk down this fenced track it leads you nicely up to Hothersall Hall which is hidden here with all the fresh new greenery of Spring .... as you pass the Hall you then start the peaceful stroll along Hothersall Lane.

The hamlet of Whitewell where the River Hodder winds its way through wooded valley's, rolling fells, midst misty moors of the Forest of Bowland ....... with all this natural beauty around you will definitely be back for more :) :) :)

As you can see from these three shots we are back to last year again because as I look out at the grey skies of the day and no sign of any sunshine I though it was time to give you all a taste of things to come :) :) :)

This walk has a mix of woods, meadows and rolling countryside which is such a joy to experience on a warm sunny day ....... I love these little narrow tracks that you come across when you have a canopy of trees above and the dappled light across the ground ahead of you ..... memories of those Summer days to come :) :)

I love coming across horses and ponies in the fields around me seeing them happily grazing on such lush green grass and enjoying the warmth of the afternon sunshine ....... I look on and dream of riding across these meadows in an area that is so familiar to me and somewhere I used to keep my horse, you can see the farm at the edge of the woods where I spent many a happy hour :) :)
