The Harmony of the Upper Wharfe Valley

The Harmony of the Upper Wharfe Valley
The Upper Wharfdale Valley between Kettlewell and Buckden is a feast of harmonic landscapes. The prevailing features are of its river, walls and barns. Here we see a few of its walls just a mile or so from the village of Kettlwell. Just below this scene is its iconic River Wharfe. Another feature of this steep glacial valley is its light as demonstrated here. Nothing too strong -just gentle relaxing shades where if you are lucky a stray deer or hare might break the spell.
Enjoy, Herb

Nice to see you here again Toz. As you know, this is such a wonderful valley, in fact one of my favourites anywhere. This was just the start of the shortened round walk from Kettlewell to Starbottom. As you say, lots of barns, walls and light too.

Cheers, Herb

A wonderful atmospheric image Herb, pity about the power lines I did think crop the pole but you need it to give the lines purpose, enjoy your Sunday

Herb Riddle club has replied to Peter Castell club
Glad you like the scene Peter. I did see the lines both on taking and posting. I do have other photos very similar to this without them but this had a more 'mystic' air to it. I too thought about cropping but the lines actually compliment the lower horizontal wall a little too. Ah well its there now! Sometimes I think I should be more professional about these things and post only perfect pictures but Ipernity does not really require that in my opinion. It's that, what makes Ipernity quite nice and what it is!

A lovely atmospheric shot of a wonderful area.

Herb Riddle club has replied to natureoncam aka Greg club
Nice to see you again Greg. Aye, this is indeed a gem of an area. I have walked along the river here at least half a dozen times over the last 30 years, always taking lots of photos of probably the exact same things. I was not disappointed in this trip which was shorter than our usual round of Kettlewell-Buckden-Kettlewell. Great Autumn colours to match atmospheric lighting, walls and barns. Glad it brought back pleasant memories, maybe on your next visit you might get the chance of more photos. Of course glad you enjoyed this.
