Not sure brave is the right word, however todays offering is a tad colder than yesterday, I say a tad, if I'm honest my outing was bordering on the idiotic, some of the drifted snow was up to my Tutu.

Today in Pictures, I asked Sherpa Tenzing if he was coming, he said it was too cold for him, I said OK Norgay.

1. We are about to leave the sanctuary of the trees.
2. Thats where we are going.
3. If only I had brought a towel.
4. I wonder why the gritters have not done up here.
5. Perhaps its drifting a bit too much.
6. Its a mossicle.
7. Just so you know, I am sat in the snow for this shot.
8. Time to head back.
9. Its a cold aspidistra, and I don't mean the sedge plant.
10. Back in the safe haven of the trees. just in time, I can hear the helicopter arriving.

Re: Today in pictures
 

The first level at Hapton Quarry after walking through Hameldon Woods, thats the end of it in picture two.

If you toggle between pictures 2 & 3 you get the idea where it is

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures, lets skip down to the river.

1. Down the lane, in the shadow of Pendle.
2. Thats Hapton Quarry in the distance, those big things are trees.
3. I think that quarry is following me, its still there in the distance.
4. You are probably thinking what is he doing out in the middle of the river, well I will tell you.........doggy paddle.
5. Lets see where this stream goes.
6. I know just how you feel.....its the cold weather.
7. Heading upstream.
8. I was going to shoot the rapids, but at my age it has to be shoot the slowlys.
9. They were not that steep on the way down !
10. Back up a different lane, no I'm not lost....hello is that international rescue

Love the wild crocuses and the skeleton trees.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures, one minute there is a bit of blue in the sky, the next horizontal snow is blowing my skirt up.

1. I can see Pendle Hill wherever I go, even here, Pendle Hill.
2. It doesn't get smaller if I move away. Thats the ski slope.
3. Thats Clitheroe, if you squint you can see the castle.
4. Still sticking their head up despite the cold snap.
5. Yet another dry stone wall.
6. Stunted growth, but I do my best, I am standing on tiptoes for this shot. Tiptoes is furious, he only came to hold my tripod.
7.Now for the atmospheric shots.
8. Told you.
9. Thats your lot, its time to head home.
10. Looking down the other side to Sabden as we head home.

Great set of shots -can feel the cold wind blowing. I especially like the breaking wall(5) and the tree (6) -glad to see you kept out of the water today -would have even frozen the barnacles! ;)
