Beautiful shots there....doesn't everything look green and spring like?
It seems the tres have come into leaf all of a sudden.
Number two is a very atmospheric shot.

Re: Today in pictures

Thanks Margaret, I wasn't sure on image two as that cloud really dominates the shot and almost didn't post it.

It would have been a shame if you hadn't.
It is a picture that shows Ma Nature in a bit of a sulk....and I like it.

Re: Today in pictures

Some from today, it was fairly grim today in Accrington, but around 16:30pm decided I would go out to the seaside at Morecambe and Heysham as the skies looked a lot brighter out that way.

The first two are of Morecambe Bay taken at Morecambe, the third is at Heysham...

It was on anchor there all day. They used small boats to bring the passengers ashore who wanted to go on the coach tour they had organised.

I remember back in the 60's when I used the A59 a lot, the radar dishes were still uncovered and it was only later they covered them and then people called them golf balls

Re: Today in pictures

A bit of artistic licence witht some photographs I took at Inveraray Courthouse and jail.

Re: Today in pictures

I made a special effort today to go into Accrington to see the vintage bus festival on the Town Square. Say no more, apart from the oil left a mess for someone to clean up.

Re: Today in pictures

Yesterday...the lad and me took off for the day.
Moving people were running a trip to Liverpool...so I booked for both of us.
We had an absolutely BRILLIANT day...there was only one thing wrong with it...it came to an end far too soon(though that wasn't the opinion of my feet.
I am going to blog about our day...but in the meantime here are a few pics of the day.
1) Love locks...these are place by couples, they lock them onto the barrier and throw the key into the Mersey...aah, sweet!

2) A statue of a workhorse.
3) the Clown - SuperLambanana...a japanese take on GM foods(though this was designed by a liverpool schoolchild,

4) Well four has to be the Fab four.....my era, my teen dream and so lifelike you expect them to sing(though a bit larger than life...but then THAT fits too)

5) the fab four(I know you can onl see three) with the Liver building as a backdrop.
6,7,8) the heads of the fab four.
9) Cilla...outside the Cavern clb in Matthew St
10)George Harrison.

Re: Today in pictures

Nice one Margaret.. I'm glad you enjoyed your day out and thanks for the photos. We have been with moving people a few times and always enjoy their choice of venue. That was one we missed out on.
