Re: Today in pictures

Today in Pictures, is another of those walks in the extreme, I did intend to walk down to the river and snap some snow scenes, got into Gt Harwood, all gone, so where can I go that will be covered in snow, higher than yesterday, colder than yesterday and more "life in the extreme" Pendle Hill it is then.

1. This is a new installation, something I knew nothing about, and I have to say fascinating.
2. That will be our final destination, it doesn't look all that far away from here, but it is.
3. The temperature is at freezing point, but the sky and clouds are giving a colour and cloud display.
4. The rays are over Gt Harwood, you can just see Dean Clough Reservoir.
5. Off to the right you can see Longridge Fell.
6. You can see the reservoirs again in this one.
7. Although we are getting further away from our starting point it doesn't look like we have moved much at all.
8. We have arrived at the point we will turn around and head back in roughly the same direction.
9. I have been given a sign, we must return.
10. And with a final lean against the wall its time to head back.

Just a few taken through our windows over the last 2 days. Apologies as they are not as sharp as I would like, do to being taken through the windows.
Nice shots - charming birds! They're tits I believe?

It was the busiest I had seen it for a while, walkers, sledgers, snowmen builders, and not forgeting photographers, I had to walk for 30 minutes before they thinned out and I was almost on my own.

Re: Today in pictures

Today in Pictures, is a joint effort today, so I suspect all my techniques will be revealed later.

1. According to mummy, I'm going to be a proper little madam.
2. Time to stand in a stream.
3. Third res down from the top.
4. Same res but round a bit.
5. The sun appeared to stay in the same place for ages.
6. Guess what's wet now.
7. Sitting on a metal bench could weld you to the spot, especially if you have wet strides.
8. Heading down to the monument.
9. Oy...get down from there.
10. And with that "accy" went to bed.



p.s. thanks for the company.

Jen..I LOVE number 8.......it's the light again, and the shadows.
I see you had the services of a guide.
The zoom is great too.

Re: Today in pictures

I had a good time .. and it was fun .. a bit slippy, a bit muddy, and davemac tried to get me to fall in a stream but I managed not to

my first time up the coppice ... I will hopefully venture up there again ... with an extra set of batteries ...

and surely dave you should have checked your trousers before you left home ....
