I have a couple of these shots and I could decide what to post first so I pointed at my laptop screen and picked this.
This shot confirms that not everywhere in the Teesside environs is smoggy and grimy.
A dig in to the back catalogue and the eye catching setting of this stile near the top of Pen yr Ole Wen. The view across the Ogwen Valley as you ascend this mountain is delightful. The brooding mass of the pyramidal peak of Tryfan captivates the scene, with Llyn Ogwen at its feet and the full majesty of the Glyderau as a backdrop. There are few places in the UK that can match it for majestic mountain scenery.
It wasn't the best of days weather wise, but the light piercing through the gloomy October skies momentarily lit up Cwm Idwal in the distance. "A bit of light in the Devils Kitchen" is always nice!
This is the Esk Valley Trail approaching Stormy Hall in Danby Dale which is in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park
The ancient stone steps in the wall now has the safety features of the extensive wood rails to help us older folks safely over
You don't see a stile like this one too often. Not these days. But this enterprising farmer has used an age old technique for getting over his fence without the need for a gate. The reddish stile is very attractive as well against this landscape full of colour in the bright morning sun.
Stiles of all sorts and sizes are found on country walks, this one at the bottom on Saint Michael’s Hill leans over at a strange angle, however it does the job. I thought it made a nice picture with the ash tree and sunlit field as a backdrop.
Possibly my favourite set of tops...High Crag, High Stile and Red Pike, looking down into the Buttermere valley
I really like the composition on this - with the black and white conversion, there are three main characters is the scene - however it's the Style that makes it for me :-)
Die Blütezeit dieser Abtei war bereits im 11. Jh. Allerdings galt die Gegend als "ungesund" und mit dem 15. Jh war die Abtei ziemlich unbewohnt. Ende des 18. Jhs wurde das Ganze säkularisiert aber im 19 Jh wurde erkannte man den künstlerischen Wert und ihre Bedeutung für die Sakralkunst. Als Gesamtkunstwerk ist die gesamte Abtei eine der wichtigsten romanischen Anlagen in Italien. Der abgeschrankte Fußboden ist z. T. aus dem 7. Jh. Die Kirche selber stammt aus dem 9. Jh und entspricht dem ravennatischen Typus einer Basilika. Die Arkadensäulen sind römische und byzantinische Spolien. Die Wandfresken sind im Stile bolonesischer Wandmalereien erstellt und aus dem 14. Jh. Mittlerweile wird die Kirche auch wieder sakral genutzt.
The abbey's heyday was as early as the 11th century, but the area was considered "unhealthy" and by the 15th century the abbey was fairly uninhabited. At the end of the 18th century the whole thing was secularised, but in the 19th century its artistic value and importance for sacred art was recognised. As a complete work of art, the entire abbey is one of the most important Romanesque complexes in Italy. Some of the sloped floors date from the 7th century. The church itself dates from the 9th century and corresponds to the Ravenna type of basilica. The arcade columns are Roman and Byzantine spolia. The frescoes on the walls are in the style of Bolonian murals and date from the 14th century.
This photograph with great pleasure offer to girlfriend Elisabetta currently in Milan expert in art to contemplate our rich patrimony.
Ciao carissima
A elegante Basílica dos Mártires situa-se na famosa rua Garrett, no requintado e mítico Chiado, bem no centro da cosmopolita cidade de Lisboa.
Com origens bem antigas, diz-se que a Ermida foi erguida a mando do primeiro rei Português, D. Afonso Henriques, em honra a todos os cruzados martirizados na tomada de Lisboa aos Mouros em 1147, podendo-se ler no interior a seguinte inscrição “Nesta paróquia se administrou o primeiro baptismo depois da tomada de Lisboa aos Mouros no ano de 1147”.
Não obstante, o presente templo começou a ser construído em 1769 e foi terminado em 1786, ostentando um profuso estilo Barroco tão característico da marca Pombalina do Lisboa pós terramoto de 1755, de acordo com o projecto do muito conceituado Arquitecto Reynaldo Manuel dos Santos.
L'elegante Basilica dei Martiri si trova sulla famosa Garrett, la squisita e leggendario Chiado, proprio nella città cosmopolita di Lisbona.
Con origini antichissime, si dice che la cappella fu costruita per volere del primo re portoghese, D. Afonso Henriques, in onore di tutti i martiri croce nel prendere Lisbona dai Mori nel 1147 e può essere letto nel seguente iscrizione "In questa parrocchia è stato somministrato il primo battesimo dopo la cattura di Lisbona ai Mori per l'anno 1147."
Tuttavia, l'attuale tempio fu iniziata nel 1769 e fu completata nel 1786, che vanta uno stile barocco sontuoso così caratteristico del marchio Pombal di Lisbona dopo il terremoto del 1755, secondo Architetto altamente considerato del progetto Reynaldo dos Santos.
Today I set out for a ten mile walk with a friend and was followed for the length of two fields by Yin, who paused at the stile leading into a field of cows. There we parted company.
Later this evening I got a bit concerned when he wasn't home, not even for dinner, so I walked back across the two fields to the exact spot where I'd left him eight hours earlier and after a while saw him coming running to me. I don't think he's ever gone so far from home before and being so low in the tall grass must've seemed quite daunting to him.
And fences too.
I'm sorry that I have been a bit spasmodic with both my posting and my visiting over the last couple of weeks. We've been having some remedial work done on our sitting room to rectify problems with damp and so we're a bit upside down! Hopefully we should be able to move back into the room over the weekend....
So with a bit of 'luck' and a following wind things should improve re my time on Flickr (and taking photos)!
Wishing all a HFF and a great weekend.

…Up and over the stock fence & wall to follow the ‘Shropshire Way’, I was pleased to see the sun on this morning at Haughmond hill by the Abbey ruins. Happy Fence Friday folks.…..

Being unable to travel and therefore climb I find myself looking back a little. In this case to February this year and a fine hike I took over the Buttermere Fells. This view looks towards Fleetwith Pike from the summit of High Stile.
Looking down on Chapel Stile from Lingmoor Fell in the Lake District National Park
Chapel Stile is a village in Cumbria, England, located approximately 5 miles northwest of Ambleside, within the Langdale valley. It contains a school, church, the Co-op and the Wainwrights' Inn, and a quarry is located in the vicinity Wiki
A wooden ladder stile on Bellhag Tor in the Woodlands Valley with Lose Hill in the background, lit by the evening sunlight.
Explanation from Wikipedia: these are commonly used where footpaths cross dry stone walls in England. This example is in the Lake Distrtict. With this type of stile there is a vertical gap in the wall, usually no more than 25 centimetres wide, and often with stone pillars on either side to protect the structure of the wall.
A small stream flows between Buttermere and Crummock Water. High Stile is in the background, under a layer of puffy white clouds.
Hope everyone has a good Monday, and thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments.

Stoodley Pike
The Welly Boot Song by Billy Connolly came to mind when we were crossing this stile. “If it wisnae fur yer wellies, where would you be.....”
You’d be ankle deep in the thick, gloopy mud, which was at one time frozen but is now no longer due to the amount of people who have been over this stile today. It was the same on both sides, not the easiest one we’ve negotiated during our 2020 walks.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
