A trip to Cardiff

lovely pictures ~ those leaves are like jewels and i love that last one ~ its like the dark dark wood in a fairy story!

I agree with Sticki

great photos Nariz,3rd one looks like a beautiful carpet..

Super pics Nariz - thanks for sharing them. I love the red and yellow carpet too!

It's an interesting place isn't it . Thanks for showing the house and gardens. I didn't get to see that bit when I went last.
Your photos are brilliant ! I'm not very good. I just show the best few out of many lol
I hope you enjoyed your stay in Wales. Come again soon :o))

Thanks for your comments everyone - I thought how lovely it would be to have a carpet just like that!
Hywel - your photos of the buildings in St Fagans are fantastic! Proper little 'David Bailey!' Yes, I had a lovely time in Wales - as always - and I certainly will visit again. When we were deciding whether to move to Spain or move to somewhere near Cardiff, Spain won by a whisker, but the Cardiff area will remain one of our favourite places. :o)

I don't live very near our capital city, and I'm not very familiar with the surrounding countryside ..... but I do like the museum of Welsh life, and going up the Taff on a boat lol
I'm pleased you like the area :o)

Oh, and thanks for the compliment lol

We were staying with friends in Wales last summer (watched some of the England football games on TV) and our trips out more than made up for England's poor performances.
St. Fagan's was one of the highlights: we had a lovely sunny day so saw it at it's best.
They were building another iron-age hut and I was amused by the comments of groups of children; the British seemed to want to join in 'treading' the mud, dung and straw mix whilst the American children were full of, "Ughs".

Another highlight was a day spent at magnificent gardens; I forget it's name but it's range of both tropical and natural plants was wonderful.

So pleased you enjoyed your trip to Wales, thanks for showing us your photos.

Thanks guys. :o)

Great photos of your time in Wales, Nariz! :-))

Like others I particularly liked the leafy ground picture!

Do you have Picasa installed on your computer or some other photo enhancing software? As you can use them to lighten or darken & make one or two other changes to your photos.

Amazing!! Goyer Arlene and hubby took me here last Friday!!! Would definitely like to see the gardens earlier in the year, as well. :-))

Hi Balcony - no I don't have anything to enhance photos. Maybe I'll go down that route one day.
Hope you enjoyed St Fagans as much as I did, David? Missed you by two days!

Nariz, I use Picasa to lighten or darken my photos as well as adding the file names to the pictures. It's a good programme if you are not interested in making special effects but just a simple, basic programme.

It's from Google & can also store your photos online so you can share them with the general public or make them private so only selected people can view them.

You can also make up collages with your photos. I've made a couple that I've also uploaded to GoY.
