The colder it is the more crisp the view is out across the Solway Firth and over to the Isle of Man, so on that front, defo agree

I take it they're all your photos? Great work
Yes they are - thank you. Some of my better images taken up thereI take it they're all your photos? Great work
There's a place just north of here just into Scotland where people flock from the world over due to the lack of man made light at night. Better for observation etc. You been?Yes they are - thank you. Some of my better images taken up there
I've heard of such places but not been there. We were down on the Dorset coast a short while ago. Very little light pollution there too.
A bit remiss of me but I have been to Scotland for 6 hours on business once in the last twenty plus years. I must try harder!
Lived on the most northerly of the Shetland Islands (Unst) for a couple of years some years ago and been down the Falklands 5 times, photographers paradise I suspect. Crinan is a great place to visit in Scotland.
@Redline and @Andy McDonnell Cornwall is great too for low light pollution. When the street lights go out it's black as a bag around here.
On clear nights it's a sight to behold for a star gazer. Jill's mom used to love to sit outside looking at the sky. I thought she was nuts, but it turns out she loved the stars

If you want to see something just truly amazing - Get the Bins out and look at the sky at night. Just phenomenal how many stars there are up there.@Redline and @Andy McDonnell Cornwall is great too for low light pollution. When the street lights go out it's black as a bag around here.

Indeed - We are truly blessed with our countryside and coast.
I can see why the west coast causes you no problems then. As soon as I retire I'll be off....
I'd darn near kill to have roads like that around me to drive on regularly! I get a choice of three highways or gravel roads! JIM
@oldcarman there you go JIM, couple of shots of the Hard Knott Pass just down the road. A proper Zed road. One of many in my locality.
Love that stretch of road
Thanks @Andy McDonnell, you wouldn't have an extra stall in a barn I could permanently move into would you? Would also save me shipping TOO! To Canada and I'd finally have someone to run with, drink beer with, etc, etc. JIM
I think there might be a few of us sharing
I'm gonna need a bigger houseI think there might be a few of us sharing
Sadly JIM no room for car storage, however, jump on a plane and pop over and I'll show you the sites.
