About No-one could accuse me of not knowing how to treat a lady?
On our last night in York I took Carole for a walk, just as the sun was going down?
And ya know what?
I deliberately left one of my cameras at the B&B so that I had a hand free to hold HER hand!!
Then, I splashed out on a bag of fish and chips ~ between us!! :o)
And they say the age of romance is dead!!
Not while I?m around it isn?t!!
So if your man is needing a little advice on such matters, get him to e-mail: chris@romanticgestures.com.
Best regards to all,
Chris
P.S. The above picture is hardly PSed at all. The sky is original and so is the bridge, canoeist, water, boats, ducks, trees and leaping salmon!!

And I never have enough of your landscapes which I found so very exquisite. I wish I could reach this quality with my shots!!!
This is again a marvel of details and colours!
Thanks for the comments at the boat in the iris pond.
Best of regards from Gabriela

Great capture of Lendal Bridge Chris, I wish I had known you were over this way as we could have met up and even put a BBQ on for you both.

You will just have to come back and do it all again ;-)

Best wishes,
Steve

Beautiful image, Chris. Especially since you are telling us that only the sky, bridge, canoeist, water, boats, ducks, trees and leaping salmon are original. Therefore you have done a magnificent job of adding the buildings! I like the framing too :-) Best wishes, Larry.

A whole bag of chips - wow, you'd win anyones heart with that :-)

I know this spot well, think that's "Lendal Bridge" just near the train station and it's for the best pub in York to the right of it, The Maltings, where I took Steve ages ago.

See the red boats are moored up for the night.

Such a great place to capture - ifd all the people would leave for a day, or just move to the side a bit....
