Now you've done it! I wanna come home. Funny how after 34 years abroad I still think of it as home eh? Not only me, most of us do, especially after pics like these. They are fab Sue, Thankyou.

JOHN R MULLEN
A lovely set of pictures Sue,the ones I like best are to numerous to mention but I particularly liked The Autumn , and the water pictures, its hard to find one I didn't like your framing of your pictures ,and your eye for a good picture, your light and shade I hope to equal it one day.

Helen
I'm coming back home from Cyprus. I want my Grandson to see what was on my doorstep all my life. Thank you for the beautiful photographs and memories.

Alan Taylor
Sue, your photos are absolutely stunning and show off our beautiful county to perfection. A lot of people have got the wrong impression of Lancashire. I did hear of a bloke who lived south of the Thames, and several years ago his job dictated that he moved up here. His wife cried for a week! If she could have seen your pictures her tears would have dried up at once. Keep up the good work!

Mahendra, Berlin
The pictures are lovelyTrue nature’s glamour fondlySeries of sceneries are dearly,Each I liked profoundly.*Many took me back To my innocent childhoodIt is imagination’s magicFor some moments indeed.*The greenery of the fieldsVery special with autumn’s white cloudsTrees in all kinds and manifoldsTheir beauty my breath holds.*Really its phenomena insatiable,I behold the sceneries multiple,Never enough, ever to have available,I fall in love with the nature incredible.

Sue, your pictures are beautiful. Talented lady. I live abroad in Southern Spain but come from Caton near Lancaster originally. These pics make me homesick. I had truly forgotten just how beautiful this part of the world is. This page is a Godsend to me. Thankyou for taking the time to provide such lovely memories. June

Dorothy Hartley
I realy enjoyed looking at all your photos they are very good.

Alice Hazeldine
Sue your pictures are lovely.

Steve Hulme
Great pictures Sue, I really feel homesick now, stuck down in (flat)Suffolk.....

Ina
Absolutely fantastic. I SO much enjoyed them. (making me feel all warm inside) What a pleasure. Well done Sue

Sue
Andy I think the best way would be up past the caravan park, along the bottom of the Golf Club towards The New Drop, straight across towards Huntington Hall Lane on your right, down there and about half a mile along there's a footpath sign to your left follow down towads your right this will bring you out on the footpath that will take you through the wood to Hurst Green. At the junction where the road splits at Greengore Farm go towards the left, follow down to Mill Wood, follow the path through the wood my babbling brook picture was just before you go over the bridge to your left, but you will follow the stream all through the woods and see many more little waterfalls. When you get to Hurst Green you could go left towards Stoneyhurst College and follow the road up left past the Golf Club until you come to the top road and Longridge Fell, through the Fell up towards Jeffrey Hill and then along the top of the Longridge Golf Club road, dropping back down to Longridge. Hope that this helps but not too sure how far you wanted to walk !! - Sue

SUE
FORGOT TO SAY ANDY THE NAME OF THE WOOD IN WHICH MY BABBLING BROOK PICTURE CAME FROM IS MILL WOOD YOU WILL SEE IT ON THE MAP JUST AT THE SIDE OF HURST GREEN, IT'S A LOVELY WALK THROUGH THE WOOD, HOPE YOU ENJOY IT - SUE

andy
