Don't know what that means, you could try a word with Mick if you are blocked from uploading.

Re: Today in pictures
 

When I have had problems of this type I have needed to reduce the file size....that usually does the trick, but if not, the other bit of advice is good...contact Mick and he will point you in the right direction

Re: Today in pictures
 

Cheers M,i'll have a mess around and sort the file size out (asked Mick also) :)

Today in Pictures, more than a moist moment.

1. Just on the border with Hapton, this bit is still in the borough, and part of the Hyndburn Clog (a walk I have done twice)
2. Leaving Hyndburn, and dropping down to the Hapton border.
3. This is where the stream we are about to follow dives down a Victorian culvert to go under the railway line, and then the Motorway(M65)
4. Castle Clough, it wasn't really a castle just a fortified manor house that used to sit on the high ground to the right of the picture.
5. The Wild Garlic is poised to flower.
6. The high points used to join up, until the stone was quarried out, then at some point the stream was put to use, the stone pillar was one half of a sluice gate. The base of the gate is still visible under the water.
7. These stones from time to time are dislodged off the rock face and tumble down to the low point.
8.Sometimes the water level is such that tree roots tumble along the stream bed.
9. There used to be a footpath along the waters edge but that vanished a few years ago when we were all subjected to flood conditions.
10. That concludes a walk that went on longer than expected, but I was mooching with the camera, just round the corner is back lane, and the way home.

Continuing in the pursuance of a troll, I trekked along the canal from Clayton towards Altham.
Sadly,on this occasion, i didn't manage to find a troll,what i did find however was a (just as rare) Footwear tree and the ruins of a old building near bank clough bridge #117.

Number 8 is beautiful!

Today in pictures
 

Not something you see very often, a pair of apache helicopters flying over blackburn, look to be loaded with weapons.

Re: Today in pictures
 

They flew by again, so got a couple more.

A few from today

Re: Today in pictures
 

The Credit River near where I live has developed quite an ice dam. It does this most years when the ice breaks up and can't escape over the dam. I've been meaning to go onto the bridge to see it for a few days now, and today was the day! On one side you can see the ice backed up, and the damage to the willow trees left over from last winter's ice storm. On the other side is the old bridge and dam, and what's left of the Barber Paper Mill after a developer started 'restoring' it. As the weather warms a bit more (Oh please!) the ice will start to flow - it's quite a site when it does.:eek:

Re: Today in pictures
 

I meant ice jam, not dam. I get my dam jams mixed up LOL.

Re: Today in pictures
 

anyone have a solar filter and if so are you taking some pics tomorrow. Hoping to see some good ones

Re: Today in pictures
 

Forecast isn't good unfortunately, I bought a filter a few weeks ago but can't find it now. :(
