Ashmore Pond

Schitterende opname en pip,Rosa.
Ik zie direct,de appel valt niet ver van de boom...(lol)
Hartelijke groeten...........
Frans.

Ha ha, that is very kind of you to say Frans.
Best regards, Rosa.

This pair of pics, Rosa, captures perfectly the feeling of winter. The pond looks lovely, but I don't feel inclined to go for a dook. LOL. Cheers, Joe

I wouldn't recommend a dook when it's not winter Joe. LOL. I am pleased you like the two pics, and I thank you on behalf of my daughter. Cheers, Rosa.

Terriifc shots from the village pond Rosa. Some very fine buildings to be seen and I love the dusting of snow on the thatched roof, just enough to give a covering but not hide the detail of the thatch too much.

All the best, Doug

The dusting of snow was due to the winds that accompanied the powdery snow. It gives a very smooth look to the roof, which I am pleased you noticed. Thank you for your very kind comments.

All the best, Rosa.

A beautiful traditional village duck pond image, a lot neater than Groby Pool (it's a lake ) the part you have access to used to be maintained, now it's natural which of course means brambles and similar rubbish !! It rained last night then froze so everywhere was glazed this morning so i stayed in !!!! I did venture out this afternoon when most had thawed. did you get to see your snowdrops

It's a shame when they are let go Peter. The roads here were very slippery first thing this morning so I walked into town...the milkman didn't come yesterday! Can't say I blame him though! I don't think I will be going to see the snowdrops tomorrow unless there is a big change. Maybe next weekend :)

Très belles photos d'hiver. Nicole.

Thank you very much Nicole.

Cracking shots Rosa, the PiP looks a lovely cottage... It certainly looks cold... Still no snow here, just drizzled a bit.

All the best, John.

Thank you John. Michelle's cottage is about half the size of the one in the picture, but very close to it. Still frozen down here!

All the best, Rosa.

I, too, like the second photo, with the snowy Thatch! a good wintry scene Rosa.
Kind wishes, Sarah

Thank you very much for your kind comments Sarah.
Best wishes, Rosa.

Lovely seasonal scene, no matter who was behind the camera Rosalyn. I would say for me though "Best Viewed from indoors in the warm."

My daughter loves it out in the snow with her dog....mad!
Have a good weekend.

Fine shots by your daughter, Rosa!

Thank you very much Andy. I will tell her :)

Very nice indeed Rosa................your daughter has a good eye and has obviously inherited your "photographer genes".

I love the thatched cottage...........it's really beautiful!

Thank you Keith ;) A lot of thatches in Ashmore. My daughter's is also thatched but about half the size of this lovely cottage.

Have a good Sunday.

These are superb shots Rosa - congrats to your daughter.

Thank you Jeff. I will pass that on.

Lovely winter shot.

Thank you very much Jaap.

Back in the winter of 62/63 I seem to remember that Ashmore was cut off for weeks. Your daughter has served you well Rosa ~~~~

Yes I remember Nick....we were all pretty much cut off! My daughter has only lived in Ashmore for a few months and was longing for snow! Have a good Sunday and keep warm ~ Rosa.

Beautiful cottages. Picture perfect in the snow.

Thank you very much Jean.

GEORGEOUS

Thank you Pam x

It looks ovely in the snow, well done by your daughter! I gather your area has got a lot of snow with svchools and roads closed. Quite enjoyable if you don't have to go anywhere;-)

I think Cornwall and Devon had it worse than here Gudrun. Sophie's school didn't close....much to her disgust ;-)) They did have a fun time in the school field though! Thank you for your lovely comments.

Beautiful shot and PiPs. I like the odld buildings!

Thank you very much Rainer.

Your daughter has done a great job here Rosa and like Sarah my fav is the snowy Thatched house :))

Best wishes ... Steve

Thank you Steve. I have just shown her all the very kind comments from everyone.

All the best, Rosa.

ik zie dat er daar wel nog sneeuw ligt,,,maar binnenkort is het overal weer weg,,,het wordt zachter

All gone now Fred and not so cold.

We don't mind, of course ...
but between you and me don't you think that this pond is much more attractive in Summer ? (:o))
Have a lovely new week, dear Rosalyn.

You could be right Christiane ;-))
I hope you have a good week too.

Your daughter has taken lovely images of these frosty scenes and very traditional looking buildings, Rosa - even a thatched roof.

Thank you George. She lives in a little thatched cottage quite close to the one in the picture. In fact you can just see the back of her thatch to the left of the cottage in the main picture.
