It was more a study of ears,wink wink.

Re: Today in pictures
 

At least you gave it a go, how do you manage to get the focus through a moving bus window? A technique all your own I think

Re: Today in pictures
 

Rush hour, then? :eek:;)

Re: Today in pictures
 

Saw on SKY earlier that this weekend will be sunny and warm in the UK - picnic weather aparently.
Hope you are all preparing to get out, make the most and take some nice pics!

Re: Today in pictures
 

all i do is hold the camera as steady as i can be if the bus has a bit of a windowsill all the better, tilt the camera so you dont get a reflection, and press the button ... and thats what comes out ... tho these are the ones that didnt really come out ...:D:D:D oh and dont forget your moving so if you think oh that would make a nice picture you might have gone past what would and get the fencing a wall or whatever ... oh and practice ... lol have tried taking pics from a virgin train coming through the lake district .. they came out a bit interesting ... lol

Re: Today in pictures
 

Along the towpath after tea this evening...and Spindles came too.....Miss BD went home and did some baking.
More bugs again.....see Dave you started something here.
1) canal side flora.....cow parsley, hogweed......it seems that these plants are difficult to identify
2) Canal side flora, with a visitor...which I didn't notice when I was taking the shot.
3) more of those flowers.
4) reflections on the still water.
5) One of them thur rings(spindles sptted this one - I owe him 50pence!
6)Clover
7) A Beatles wig growing on a tree.
8) a yellow flower that i suspect may be the precursor to the wig
9) Baby snail, hiding in the grass...well, it could hardly make a dash for it!
10) Grown up snail with a damaged shell.....maybe it was thrown by an irate gardener.

i have to admit I didn't notice the damaged shell until I put the pics up on the computer.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Just a few more.
1) a stalk of grass that looked like wheat...well, except it was green.
2) One of those hogweed, cow parsley type plants emerging from its casing.
3) cornflower - I love these almost as much as poppies.
Those are my offerings for today.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures, I know I started something, what about this late night session.

I was just playing around with my camera after dark and on the computer. the location is Mercer Park.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I was shooting on the move so didnt have a lot of time, its probably going to get to Saturday before I can have a proper walk.
