VIEW OVER THE TOP OF HALIFAX AND BEYOND

View through trees over the top of Halifax to the hills beyond. West Yourkshire.

The houses invisible in between!

It looks like more of a rise than I would have expected. What a lovely photograph!

Hello Susan. The hills in and around Halifax are quite tall. Google 'The Pennines' to get a bit of context. To drive from the centre of town to the place where I took the sheep photo takes twenty minutes - going up all the time. The effect is magnified because there are deep ravines cutting through the town and when taking this photo I am looking across the top of one of them. In some places there are nothing but trees. In others there are old mills and offices. I don't know anywhere with a similar topography and even after living there for two years can't yet make a 3D map in my head.

Thank you for the explanation, Lucy. I had no idea the Pennines were that up and down. What an interesting place to live! When you moved, I thought perhaps it wouldn't be as interesting a place for your photos, but that hasn't turned out to be true at all!
