Thank you Daryl! Yes, I think it is my 'best' lens in a lot of ways - the resolution and colour tone on it is really superb. It isn't so good for video, as it doesn't have image stabilisation built in, but you can use it for that with care. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Paul
Aww! Thank you Diana! Yes, when I started it three years ago, I was determined my channel wouldn't be a 'samey, one note' affair. Obviously, some videos will be more appealing to different sections of my audience than others, but doing lots of different types of content, with the larger Westcountry Region as the central theme, helps me to keep the content fresh, I think. I have lots of other things planned, including a couple of things you really wouldn't expect on my channel. Rest assured though, that the usual favourites like the Canal Series, the Railway Series The Coast, The Cotswolds and longer distance walks will still feature predominantly. To Dorset next! Take care, Paul
Thank you Louise! I actually found (my own) photo challenge here quiet hard - and 20 minutes is really difficult. I think I agree with you about the bag in the shop window - I too really like the textures and the colours. Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching. Paul
Very enjoyable - under a bright blue sky? I've only visited Ledbury once, some years ago, but it's a delightful place and my memories are mostly of its narrow alleyways and timber framed buildings.
Thank you Malcolm - glad you enjoyed it. Yes, that pretty much sums it up - alleyways, and timber framed buildings. It really is a lovely town that has changed little in its heart. Paul
Interesting project, Paul. I noticed sometimes you got a blue and yellow shot, complimentary colours! That would be another challenge! Lovely shots there! Thankyou!
Hmm?! Now there's a thought for a future photo challenge Michael! I had hoped to have included some more shots of me taking the photos, and other B Roll clips, but it was 30 deg C when I filmed this! I was melting at the end, and sad to say I went back home with the a/c in my car on full!! I am not a lover of warm weather. Thankfully cooler weather beckons! Take care, Paul
Yes Paul, I can't stand the hot weather! I was videoing Britannia steaming through the Medway towns today, but very hot( nice to get home and edit it! I hope to have a channel soon!
@@michaelmiller641 Ah, brilliant! I look forward to watching your channel Michael. It is a bit cooler here in Gloucestershire - I'm off to Dorset to do another Lost Railway Walk one tomorrow.
Hello Paul - greetings from Poland. Bright colours, like sunshine, are sure to put a smile on your face. Lovely video. My favourite photo? - a play on words from the name of your old employer - Wellworth It! That really put a smile on my face!
Thank you Michael! Glad you enjoyed it. Yes, 'Well Worth It' - there is story behind that shop! It was the site, of course, of Ledbury's branch of Woolworths. When Woolworths went bankrupt in 2008, the then store manager decided to set up and run it as an independent Shop (there was another one in Dorchester in Dorset, which has since closed). It sells everything Woolies used to sell - apart from Pick'n'Mix - still a great shop to browse in and one of many good independent shops in this most interesting of Herefordshire towns. She did a brilliant job, and glad to see it is still going. I think it was taken over by another business man, but it is still keeping the Woolies story alive. Cheers, Paul
Hi Paul, The rush has gone ..... I think I can own up now ....... to enjoying the balloons one best!! This was because you also have the old wooden framed building in shot. Great little challenge you set yourself, well done. Been away a couple of days and can see you have been very busy!! All the best!!
Ah! The balloons! Yes, they were tethered to the shop opposite the market place - some kind of promotion going on there, I think. Thank you David! Hope all is good with you. Take care, Paul
I have to agree on the BAG being so 'In your Face' gorgeous. The zip, the clasp. Lovely, so clear and sharp. Now that doesn't mean I don't like the others. It was a superb opening to the 10 shots. Awesome challenge keep it up. 👍🇳🇱🙋♀🥝
Thank you Anita! Glad you enjoyed it. It was quite a difficult challenge - I actually found it harder than I thought that it would be. Thank you for watching and commenting. Take care, Paul
I have to choose number 7, the pelargonium, we have that particular one on a table in the garden & it will come in to over-winter, it was also the only living thing. I loved the handbag, the great thing about the close up was that you could see the scuffs & a split, so this must have been a second hand or charity shop. It's amazing what you can see when you quietly concentrate.
Thank you Faith! Yes, those pelargoniums were looking great in the basket displays opposite the market hall building. Spot on! That red bag was in the front window of a charity shop and certainly pre-owned and used but in great condition! That's why I absolutely love photography - it means you look closer and in different ways. Thanks Faith!
Hi Paul. I have to say that the detail and the color on the opening shot of the hand bag was absolutely amazing. What a nice lens. Thank you.👍
Thank you Daryl!

Your channel is packed with variety! Yes I liked the’handbag’ shot best of all too! Thanks Paul!
Aww!

Now that’s intriguing! Dorset is more of a long haul for you - looking forward to that one!
Really nice relaxing music and.very nice video! I liked them all but the red bag was particularly nice and I loved the textures in it like the zip.
Thank you Louise!

Very nice vid Paul. My home town until I moved to Devon in 1981
It's a lovely town, but I like Devon too!
