Good collection, what's the concrete structure, or what was it.

Today in pictures
 
Don't know, there was a sign warning of entering a quarry. I wondered if it might be a bunker where they set off explosives, but that's just an un-educated guess.

Today in Pictures, whilst cogitating on this weeks competition theme I sort of had a moment of realisation. I started my working life in Oak Hill Park as an apprentice gardener, and 46 or so years later I am going back photographing the plants I used to cultivate all those years ago. Its so obvious what I was doing, but didn't realise it.

What beautiful countryside! I really like the candid shots of people. Number 10 has wonderful lighting :)

Well done with the woodpecker, only ever heard one once (a few weeks ago at Rowlands Gill) but couldn`t get near for a pic.

We have lots of the smaller ones coming to the feeder all winter long: Downies are the smallest, followed by the Hairies. The Pileated ones are the biggest, and usually hard to spot. But you sure can hear them - their call sounds like Woody Woodpecker from the cartoon (well, sort of!)

Great shots. It's interesting how the monochrome effect changes the mood of number 4: much more brooding and somber.

Really beautiful shots, davemac. I'm beaming!

You have to be careful waving a glow stick around on your own, if people don't realise what you are doing, you could get taken away.

I wasn't licking windows and trying to bite my own ear, besides I did it under the cover of darkness and away from public view :D

We(the children and I) walked it down to West Beach this afternoon.
Spindles said I had walked his legs off(and yes, his jeans do look longer).
I took a few pics but I will only upload one.
I hope you like it.

Yes, it has been a really lovely day today.
I have had time to mess around with the pics I have taken. I get almost as much pleasure out of messing with the pics as I do in taking them.
Frequently when I take a shot I have ideas of how I want my shot to look.
Here is another pic.
