impressive zoom, you don't have to leave the house to get pictures of town, have fun, just remember the most important part of the camera is the few inches behind the viewfinder.

Its a today in Pictures with a quick dip into yesterday.

1. A walk I don't think I will ever take.
2. Down at the bottom, all those steps, one day I will count them.
3. Spot the odd one out.
4. There is a certain tranquillity about the building.
5. They say it will snow on Saturday, so these have come out in sympathy, I see the bloke in the background still has a slipped disc.
6. the side stones are slipping under a green carpet.
7. The first headstone has the inscription relating to the whole family and children who never made it to adulthood, then in stark contrast a headstone with just one inscription, each has a story that we will probably never know about.
8. These stony eyes have watched as time passes and the world changes.
9. The expensive monuments are always right next to the path, so the poor members of the congregation can still be made aware of their station in life.
10. The railings further enhance stature in death.
