Accrington Web - Today in pictures

Today in Pictures, it was a pants day for weather, so I decided to calibrate my fungal detector ready for the Autumnal fungal avalanche , so with a new set of batteries and the sensitivity set to "mycelium 6" which you will agree is a middle range sensitivity, I wandered down to the woodlands.

Having a catch-up - love that slug speeding through as you shot the funghi :D

Back in your element in Waterworld I see - love number 1 and number 4 close second.

In all the times I went to Cleveleys in recent years to see my aunt I never saw the sea so rough!

I had to use a fast shutter speed for that one.

You have to see the video to fully appreciate my commitment to a moist gusset.
It was a bit lively to say the least, we got there at high tide and you could feel the spray long before you could see the sea.

It is, but most of them this year are a bit slug eaten, unlike last year when I found a few good specimens.

Thank you for the compliment Mobertol. DiG is right, when you are in foreign parts you do tend to pay more attention to whats happening in the food department. I got my cooking skills from Moira my ex wife,(God bless her, she makes Gordon Ramsey look like a dog meat chef) When we agreed to go our separate ways, after she kicked me out, I felt the loss of her cooking to such a degree, it prompted me to get cracking in the kitchen. When I'me not sure about something I try to find it on the net, if I can't find what I want, I ring Moira my ex wife and she puts me right.

If Shillelagh says the sun set was between 7 and 7.30 PM, whom am I to argue.

Taken down past the old Huncoat Power station, through the open passenger window of my car. Little old pocket Panasonic came in handy again.
