Nice shot Alun, how was it? We had the heating on today - cold, wet, miserable weather.

@Observing: Cheers dude, It was ok saterday but rain all night sunny all day sunday.
standley from brou-sur-chantereine, France
At first I thought it was a boat in shallow waters! Are you allowed to camp in open spaces in U.K? In france we can't!
17 May 2008 6:37pm
@standley: Yes, not in farm land but up in the mountain you can, as long as its away from paths. Wild camping is great.
Graham Russon from Cape Town, South Africa

What are you looking down on? Is your tent perched on the edge of a cliff? You do like heights. Great shot and perspective. Very, very interesting.

@Marion: Its in a field and thats the side of a very steep vally, cheers
Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom
djedfre, above, has well beaten me to the comment that this looks to have been taken from orbit! Now, that really would be getting away from it all!

@Ronnie 2¢: No, just the snowdonia hills :))
@Anthony Lambert: Its in the Trangia On its way grandad :))))
