    I'm a bit late to this set.

    Another great travel set with a fantastic glimpse to the story you write while playing.
    Some great images to go with this set also as always I really like your black and white images.

    Again great travel set my friend.

      I'm not a bit late responding - I'm too late!

      Thank you for always taking the time to write something! I know you have a lot to do with your own ideas, so never feel obligated to give comments, my friend!

      I do like it though, otherwise I would be lying!

      Thank you very much!

      Comments are nice and are the thing I most look forward to see specially the people who take time to write out what they like most of my images or how they make them feel.

      I always know you will reply back to the comments so I never feel they are late.

      A short and simple "thank you" will have to be enough for this time, since I'm two weeks behind in my reply!

      I apologize for that...

      No apologies necessary my friend, and my apologies for the very short comment of mine, I wrote it while taking a rest between writing reports ready for some meetings the next day...BUT....just looking through this set allowed my mind to move away from
      the mundanities that I was dealing with and gave me just that wonderful short time to relax and enjoy your wonderful skill...and then back to the reports!

      Fabulous work old mate!

      You're too kind!

      Sometimes these little breaks from the ordinary day is just what we need to get boosted again. Fantasy and imagination has always been my "fix" so to speak...

      Today I had the time to sink myself into all your uploaded story sets, since I'm off from work. Sadly this means I have to work yet another weekend and it bothers me a bit, especially since my kids are coming tomorrow as well. I will loose quite a lot of hours with both them and the game I love so much. But the good thing is I'm working more and more again - still just a few hours four days a week - but it's a path back to a stable economy at least and it also proves I'm more capable to keep my social phobia at bay...

      Thanks again, my dear friend!

    Typical Reach weather. Although sometimes I like it very much.
    The last pic has the quality of a RL photography.

      I don't like the weather in The Reach sometimes, I like it always!

      The grey blankets of a soft haze covering the higland and craggy regions in this part of Skyrim has always fascinated me...

      Truly thank you for the kind praise!

    Hej Rick
    I love this set and I see you are slowly coming back to your roots... the last picture is a s/w... yes I saw the other one, too, but that's why I say 'slowly'
    I don't wanna choose a favorite, because this set is so wonderful in it's unit... AND I have to say, I enjoyed the music very much... this song owned a place in my playlist

      Hallo Tanja!

      Yeah, I'm bringing more and more b/w stuff to the table again, even if I find Vividian making excellent atmospheric colour shots. Bleak ENb - which I used a lot before - is supernice for b/w shots with a bit harder contrast while Vividian is more soft, yet beautiful...

      "The Gathering" is a Dutch band and this song is also one of my favorites from them. The singer is amazing, although I'm not sure if she's still in the band. I'm sadly not up-to-date with such news...

      Sorry for the late reply!

    This is a very nice travel set of Orukh. I like especially the misty pics in the beginning. This valley is always a special lokation for me and you capured it exactly in my favourite appearance

    I like the colours of your following pics too. Remarkable are the golden elven armor and the morningstar on the chain(hmmm....not so colourful ).

    The music is well chosen to go with y our pics

      Thank you, dear lady!

      Very late reply here, but I still wanted to give my thanks!

      The Reach is one of my favorite places, mainly because of the fog often seen there. When I was playing in Vanilla with Purity only, this area was the best in the game when it came to pure atmosphere. It's still misty and nice with my ENB luckily...

    Some stunning captures and brilliant work in this set, Rick.

    So many different things on show in these images that make you sit up and take notice of the everyday items in Skyrim and not just character shots, really great work

      Thank you kindly, John!

      I started out with landscape shots only, because character shots ain't all that interesting without a pretty ENB making them justice. Then the details and objects started to lure me in and since a few months ago I can run a nice ENB, so the characters were obviously brought in too. This is more or less how these travel sets begun, even if my original idea was to write full stories for them all, but with 100+ characters that's a bit too many threads to keep in order even for me...

    Again, got caught in the spiderweb of your awesomeness!
    All the images have that cold, frosty look to them, which only adds to the atmosphere of this set. The small piece you wrote was also interesting, a torn page from the chronicles of your Skyrim. A delight to read and view.

      Thank you so much, Kayol and please forgive me for the late reply!

      I very much like your descriptions here - both being caught in the swiderweb of awesomeness and the idea of torn pages of Skyrim chronicles. In fact, the chronicle idea is something I've had in mind too, since I can't fully upload stories for each and every travel set. But with a bit of writing in each of them, the travel gets more life and we can start to understand the characters at least a bit...

      I tend to stretch my sets as of late with perhaps too many images but I just can't stop screenshooting this game!
