This is specially for Ashok, for comparison of the Chilterns with his real hills at Nainital. Here, the height above sea-level is never more than 200 metres. These vistas are all within walking distance of my house, which is near the middle of town, in the factory district.

a wayfarer’s notes 
Thank you vincent for those lovely photos. It was very nice of you.
Chiltern is indeed beautiful with what looks like great walk to keep a human healthy and fine. I can see now why you are not fascinated by turville. There is much more here.
Thanks for showing me around Chiltern. If I am reborn, and the spirits that be, ask my choice for a relocation Chiltern will rank high on the priority list.
I am glad I checked your site. We are travelling and I do not have frequent access to the internet just now, and will respond more frequently just as soon as I can get back on the net. looking forward to be back soon to tell and hear of more charming places of our lovely world.

Hah! Tree huggers on trails, figures! (I like that photo of you.)
Love the broad vistas in your photos. I didn't realize how visually organized to vertical vistas I'd become in CA until recently. It's not only the tall buildings, but the impossible height of the skies. Skies like I grew up under here in MI are much lower and more immediate, even when they're blue and appear to be free of clouds.
Recently have become utterly enamoured of the broad views here, the vivid skies above with stacks and stacks of clouds.

Vincent, It feels like a lovely village. I like the greens in the fields near Four Ashes and the contrast of the oilseed rape and the young barley. Great photo–hugging a tree and with a bit of a smile on your face. 🙂
