To save any disagreements in the Strange and beautiful things in photography thread, I thought it best if I created a new one for people to post their scenic pictures. It can be of anything at all, so post away!

Cardingmill Valley, Shropshire


The view from Clee Hill, Shropshire (it's my favourite county!)


The woods opposite where I live after the recent heavy frosts


Wast Water in the Lake District

[J30STM]

Hahaha Thanks Jen!!
Love the view from Clee Hill. Lake district looks amazing for overview shots I need to go on vacation more to get to capture this stuff...
I hope I am able to get some nice photo's while in Liverpool from the Albert Docks.

My views aren't this spectacular, but I like where I live. Good photo ops at times.

Like how the overhanging trees became a frame for the photo


Taken with fluorescent setting on my camera..experimenting


Heavy rain in the back


Pathway view


Sepia Entrance..again experimenting with settings

[Red Flare]

Cool thread

I don't know if they qualify for scenic, but I hope you'll like them

The country:



The lagoon


Park entrance

The quarry

The forest during winter

My town's castle

This is stunning. Could I use this as my desktop wallpaper? pretty please?

[Nabucodonosor]

All those pics are amazingly beautiful.

I can't compare my camera to yours.

Anyways here are a few ones I took from my city

Thank you Jen! And be my guest, just glad you like it
* each time I see your avi, it cracks me up *

I don't have a super camera that I took these with, just a Sony Cybershot DSC-W35. I wanna have a better one, with more manual settings to work with, but those are a bit expensive right now.

Like the additions you guys put in here
@Victoria, love the overview of the water one
@Nabucodonosor, that second one is great, where is that?

^^ Karina, woman where have you been, looks like all over the place
As I said before, I love your scenic pics, specially the ones of all the shore lines, makes me wanna step inside and take a walk straight away!
Nice, very nice...

[Southerrrngirrl]

New Zealand

This one is cool, I like how the pink is scattered through the sky. Where exactly in NZ was it taken?

[~Ani~]

Jacky - the tree frames the first picture beautifully - was that deliberate or something that just happened? And the sunlight through the trees is what I call my stock in trade picture - I have so many of them!

Red Flare (I've forgotten your real name, sorry) - that has to be the weirdest castle I have ever seen! I would love to see in it real life!

Nabucodonosor - I agree with Jacky, that second picture is great!

karina - you're spoiled down in Cornwall as you have so many great views to photograph. We're hoping to come down to that corner of the world this summer I love the one in Hong Kong.

Lower Fishguard in Wales


One of my aforementioned stock in trade pictures


A sunrise from my bedroom window


No, not Switzerland, but the Lake District again

Thanks Jen and it was done that way with intention. I loved how it looked in my viewfinder with the shadows of the branches over the field. I am happy about how it came out.

Love the Welsh view, it has kind of a sad look to it and a perfect place to go for a walk and let your mind wander...
Don't you just love how you can capture sunlight like that * is that a tear in the sunrise pic on the left?*
I am already soo loving this thread!!

I have this one enlarged and framed, hanging on my wall


Didn't know the moon was in it as well as the sun when I took it..it was kinda of blinding at that moment

[TeachJoanne]

Beautiful pictures in here! Once I am back on my own computer I will bombard you with mine.

Meanwhile, Jacky, I want your view from your balcony! From this thread and the other picture thread I have seen some stunning shots from that vantage point. I am so jealous!

[~Ani~]

Don't you just love how you can capture sunlight like that * is that a tear in the sunrise pic on the left?*

No, it is a sun crystal hanging in the window. I never noticed it for ages after I had taken then picture Fishguard is where I regard as my Welsh home (I am half Welsh) as it's where I spent all my summers when I was growing up.

I love the one you had framed - I bet it looks gorgeous on the wall.

[Red Flare]

@Victoria, love the overview of the water one

Thanks Jacky

Red Flare (I've forgotten your real name, sorry) - that has to be the weirdest castle I have ever seen! I would l

It's Victoria (look under av ). Truth be told, that is not the whole castle. It's only the tower and a fragment of the wall. The castle was almost fully destroyed years ago. But it's still nice in real life
And I love your pics, I always found UK's nature very beautiful

I don't live near here, but it's a beautiful and only castle that was fully renovated in the whole country

Can't wait to see your views!

Hey hun, your welcome to check it out live in the future It came to a complete surprise to family and friends I was actually considering buying an apartment on the twelfth floor, knowing about my vertigo..It took 3 quarters of the first year, before I felt comfortable to step on a ladder cleaning my windows and almost a whole year for me to be able to sit in the sun and enjoy the view a bit.
It really was me buying a camera and wanting to capture some of what you have seen so far that made me feel at ease now, but still not looking down from the railing though Yikes!! Glad you liked what I had to show.
* I am just praying they won't stick me on top of a roof to use hammer and nails in Liverpool *

No, it is a sun crystal hanging in the window. I never noticed it for ages after I had taken then picture Fishguard is where I regard as my Welsh home (I am half Welsh) as it's where I spent all my summers when I was growing up.

Hahahaha, I hadn't even noticed the wire hanging in the photo.
I love the Welsh country side, it has a wide variety of scenery that makes it beautiful to see.
Lucky you to be living there during summertime! Do you still go back there a lot now?

Thanks, it does look great. And even more special cause you know you took it yourself.

[mythgirl]

Love all the photo's in here.. thought I'd add some of my own.

I love that this thread has had me spending the night rummaging through my old photographs - lots of smiles!! Thanks Jen!

Nice, very nice...

Not that far really, LA, Hong Kong and NZ were done in one trip for our honeymoon which was just amazing!

This one is cool, I like how the pink is scattered through the sky. Where exactly in NZ was it taken?

I'm trying to remember, I really must label my pics before I forget completely! I think it was along the road from Hanmer Springs to Kaikoura.... The camera didn't really do it justice, i remember it looking like the whole sky was on fire...

Jacky - the tree frames the first picture beautifully - was that deliberate or something that just happened? And the sunlight through the trees is what I call my stock in trade picture - I have so many of them!

Love the fishguard pic...

We are really spoiled down here, I am feeling inspired now to go out tomorrow and see what I can see (assuming its not mizzly rain like it has been today!) You should come down, you definitely won't be bored!

Dull drizzly morning walking around Denamns Gardens...

I love the colours in this one. I want to go to Scotland, I made it to Edinburgh last year but was 'distracted' and didn't get to see many of the sights!

Some more of Cornwall...

St Mawes


Cape Cornwall


Camel Estuary


Mother-in-law's garden!

@Nabucodonosor, that second one is great, where is that?

That is at my city, at Santa Lucía River
it real big
and connects with museums, the arena Monterrey (for concerts), the coca cola auditorium, and we had the International forum of cultures there.
(During that time, MCR came to play there)
