Is this fortunate person contemplating the delights of Droitwich Bill?

Oh hello Bill - I appear to be the second person to comment today on your blog of fotos

Oh my God!!!! Were is the baby?

LOL at Ada. I was thinking g'ma was probably quite happy to have a sleeping baby, perhaps, on her hands, giving her time to just sit...and maybe even to contemplate. This is the kind of image for many a story, Bill.

Delightful picture, Bill.

This is such a delight, that baby bottle...priceless...the whole story, LOL @ Ada...thanks for sharing this view with us.
BTW I love the colour of her blouse though.

Looks like a wonderful place for such contemplation.

Grandma has obviously been left in charge and is enjoying this chance of a nice sit down! Great capture of a peaceful moment.

What a view, nice one.

Yes, Bill, you are right- I like this pic and I love this behaviour. It reminds me of a known Zen-Buddhism-story and recommendation (unfortunately only in German), but the essentials are said yet by yourself:
"Ein Schüler fragte einmal seinen Meister, warum dieser immer so ruhig und gelassen sein könne. Der Meister antwortete: "Wenn ich sitze, dann sitze ich. Wenn ich stehe, dann stehe ich. Wenn ich gehe, dann gehe ich. Wenn ich esse, dann esse ich ..."

Der Schüler fiel dem Meister in´s Wort und sagte: "Aber das tue ich auch! Was machst Du darüber hinaus?"

Der Meister blieb ganz ruhig und wiederholte wie zuvor: "Wenn ich sitze, dann sitze ich. Wenn ich stehe, dann stehe ich. Wenn ich gehe, dann gehe ich ..."

Wieder sagte der Schüler: "Aber das tue ich doch auch!"

"Nein", sagte da der Meister. "Wenn Du sitzt, dann stehst Du schon. Wenn Du stehst, dann gehst Du schon. Wenn Du gehst, dann bist Du schon am Ziel.""

A stange optical effect here, Bill. Looking at the seat, it appears as if it should be 'our' side of the fence, yet she is sitting the other side of the fence. I keep looking but cannot come to terms with this trompe l'oeil.

Baby sitting.I like the way fence rail and tree frame the picture

always nice to capture someone from behind

LOL at previous comments Bill, she's taking a rest after walking up the steep hill. Oh and don't be taken in by the baby cup and bag that's her lunch with a drop of the hard stuff in the cup

Nice picture Bill, I never imagined that Dudley could be so attractive in parts.

This photograph is a delight because it reminds us all of similar moments in our own lives. (:o)

I have been about a bit (gedditt!!!) - but I have never heard of the Duttie Hills. You seem to excel in these rather odd places. Either that or you have been revelling in the use of illegal substances...

The jury is out...

Yep, I would sit here and admire the view as I chill as well, Bill.

I'd probably also give the baby knock out drops in it's drink so that I could chill out for a bit longer....

A delightful and contemplative portrait, and love the bg view too.

Granny has walked all that way to get the fretful child to sleep. Now she's afraid to move in case just releasing the brake wakes the child again. Oh the joys of being a Granny! But the joys of being able to just sit and admire that view! Lovely photo Bill.

LOL.. your words sum this up perfectly! Looks like you've got a drink waiting, Bill!
