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.
1. He must have a screw loose going in there.
2. Off down to the Dunk.
3. Playing fetch.
4. Nuthatch & Great Tit??
5. Can we go now?
6-8. Around the Dunk woods.
9. A rather chunky Robin.
10. He`s found something under there, rats nest maybe.
All great - but I LOVE number 5. And the robin of course

Lovely pics Dave, I was thinking of going up there today but the mrs nicked the car.
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.
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.
