There were some fantastic clouds today so quite a few shots of roofscapes and sky - just like when I'm at home really! Also in Lancaster it's difficult to get any shots without traffic in unless you're in the pedestrian area.
I took 95 pics today - should keep me going on here until the end of the week...
1 The building complex where Richard works sometimes - once a cotton mill then Storey's oilcloth works, historically one of Lancaster's main industries. This front bit was a Crimean War barracks later absorbed into the mill. Now marketed as "a dynamic urban village within a thriving, cultural city".
2 Hebe in a hospital flowerbed. There's a bee on there - there were a lot of them about but they wouldn't stay still for me
3 Gable on the hospital
4 The same building as 1 with lots of clouds. The road is the A6
5 Detail of building 1, nice bit of pseudo-Scottish baronial architecture
6 Leafy twigs growing from the trunk of a tree at the hospital, the door on the left is one I have been through many times in the last few months
7 Five ducks going nowhere in a hurry - on the canal at the side of the old mill complex
8 On the canal heading towards the A6 bridge
9 Meadowsweet and foliage by the canal
10 Cobbles on the path leading up to the A6 bridge
More tomorrow

Is this the new camera? Great shots
