1. War memorial to the right, shelter at the top, copper beech on the sides.
2. It looks very formal from this angle.
3. Boundary fence looking toward Pendle.
4. There is a strong smell of kebabs, with garlic sauce.
5. From here you could be in the middle of the woods.
6. Martholme Viaduct, with Read in the distance, and some baasheep under foot.
7. The showers are never far away.
8. This was the only pink one I could find, although I did find a mucky knee.
9. A moist Rhododendron.
10. An Azalea giving its all, and out of the way from people in the park
Lovely shots from one of my favourite parks. It's been many years since I was there (50? Yikes!!!!). There was actually an enclosure filled with budgies back then, unless my memory fails me. Gorgeous views, and the closups of the flowers are wonderful! Thanks davemac
