hey guys, we do not have Mountains or stunning views to show you!! plenty of views,but different!!
The Romney Marsh is very flat except for the South Downs ending at Dover(White cliffs!!) the North Downs connecting both regions there are good views to wonder at! but not scenic mountains or waterfalls!! the marsh interests me it always offers something out of the ordinary! So just a beautiful place to live! so some photos of a place very dear to me Stuffed full of Nature coping very well in a bleak area Cheers guys [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] |

Good morning Guys, Human Nature, This time man against the
elements that Mother Nature can throw at us!! There has been a lifeboat station at Dungeness Point since 1826 answering all types of distress calls when Nature goes a little astray!!Man assisting Man! not the usual Nature topic but I think it is worthy of a mention showing human nature works very well when required!! the lifeboat is launched from the beach using a tractor!1All crew are volunteers from the area best regards guys [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] |

hey guys, Camber Sands Grass
the grass, called Marrum, is a very important part of keeping the sand almost on the beach!!! the winds blow the fine sand from the sea towards the land if it was not for the marrum grass the sand would soon disappear!! Nature unknowingly preserving the shore line! another helping hand given to us to balance both sides , which of course is what nature is all about!!

Hi Guys,.....River Ravenbourne SE London/Kent
This was another playground for me in the 1950's as the river ran through many local parks! not a wide river, but it streched 17km It was known locally as "the Quaggy" It rose at Caesar's Well, Keston ,Kent and flowed into The Thames at Deptford SE London various areas were created to help Nature get established over the years, mainly trees,shrubs and plants to attract small wildlife to the river Nature getting a bit of help again from man!! many species of birds now visit the areas' created! Cheers my friends! [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] |
