Is your Ipad upside down when taking the photos, home button needs to be on the right for landscape.

Thanks gPick - I think you're on to something there. I'll pay attention to that next time I post a photo :)

Not from today...but from another jaunt to Manchester with the lad yesterday.
Again, I think this will appeal more to the lads.
1) Scrambler Bikes.
2) I think this was a speedway bike.
3) Hang glider
4) an antique vehicle.
5) The picture cascade in the foyer of MOSI
6) A better pic of the Muriel(mural)
7 Mr John Rylands...him of the library fame
8) Mrs John Rylands...also of library fame
9) Fearsome Dragon carved into the stone.
10) not sure if this is a bird or a bat

I love the carvings (it's an owl, I think). Interesting to think that in days gone by, people were employed to embellish buildings in that way - so beautiful and lasting.

aah yes...so it is. I can see it is now, but when I first looked at it I could not tell what it was.

Spindles wasn't keen to go into the John Rylands Library. he thought it would be dull and boring, but he loved it.
There was a Shakespeare Trail for the children and he hunted out the clues and got a certificate. He also got a brochure on Witches in the Middle Ages. He was enthralled by this.
We both had a very enjoyable day.

Re: Today in pictures
 

This morning hubby and I decided to try for a walk on the Fairgrounds track as we have done so many times before. The sunshine promised warmer temps., but lied - there was a bitingly cold wind. Tears streaming down our cheeks, we made a hasty retreat to the car.
1. Miss P wisely decided to stay warm in her new favourite spot.
2. Footprints: those little pawprints must be from a raccoon.
3. Frozen puddle.
4. Twin trees - no leaves in sight yet. The robins are shivering!
5. My favourite old trees in this park - on the way back to the car.

Turtle beat me to it, most definitely an Owl, I'd assume it's symbolic in so much as the Owl is associated with the Goddess(of wisdom)Athena in Greek mythology & as it's at a place of learning .... :)

Re: Today in pictures
 

It is so obvious now..... I can't believe I didn't get it before.....and of course owls are symbolic of learning and wisdom.

A walk around Dean Clough, the sun was shining but the winds ruined my hair.
