Do you mean who I think you mean???????

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Well done on the last comp Margaret.

Am getting a stiff neck already through looking skywards ... LOL.

Manchester is brilliant for this ... used to do it when I worked there ... amazing what is on the buildings. Haven't seen anything decent in Clayton yet .. still can be quite modern too I suppose if interesting.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Well Done M:D

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Kate, it doesn't have to be local.......it can be anywhere....but something interesting.
As I said, mine were taken in a variety of locations....but I am on the lookout for something local......might take a walk down to the Dunk....might be a crest or something carved into the building, or All Saints Church...or St Marys' must have some statues or carvings of some description.....not giving you ideas am I ???????

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Actually no, nearly turned into the Dunk this afternoon Margaret.
Nowt special on Barnes Square Methodist, so will save you that trouble.

Attachment 13965

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Well, Barnes Square is a Methodist establishment.......and was originally the schoolroom(I think), so it is going to be a bit on the plain side....Methodists didn't believe in embellishments.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

What happened to Thursday and Saturday:confused:

thursday is when the beautiful people come out 2 play so softens em saturday you cant see them too many people in! Lol

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

I took my camera into town today...thinking that I might get a pic of the carvings above the Market Hall......alas they were all covered in sheeting.......don't know what they are doing, but not able to take a snap of the carving.......have seen acouple of other possibles though.
Would've snapped them today, but my battery died.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

and the gargoyles on All Saints Church are pathetic!

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

well, I am disappointed.......I thought that there would be lots of scope for entries into this competition........but nothing. come on folks....get snapping!

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

i do have one margaret but its not exactly architectural features ... and accyweb wont let me upload it ... might have something to do with the content ....:D:D:D

Re: Photo Competition 72

Re: Photo Competition 72

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

So you keep sayin.. we have yet to see proof of this ;)

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

you've heard the saying innocent till proven guilty ...:D:D:D

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Getting back on thread there is only 4 photos for this competition so far come on get them cameras out:camera8:

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

I am very disappointed with the response to this comp. I thought it would give plenty of scope for pictures,
It doesn't have to be Gargoyles, Achitectural features could be anything that gives a building character......the shape of the windows, a carved door........and it doesn't have to be local.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Ive just tried to upload some ... and it said uploaded successfully ... but theyve disapeared in to the interweb never to be seen again ..

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Jen contact Mick....he will always help(especially as it is you...I think he has a soft spot for you:D)
I was thinking you might put the one on of the stained glass window at 'The Oaks'......that is a beautiful pic......and a window is an architectural feature......do I sound desperate?

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

ive got others margaret .. i did a photo quiz on haslingden and helmshore .. so theres some out of that lot that can be used .....

i could do forgot about that one ... also got one of the stained glass in the ceiling at the oaks ..

Will wait to see what happens .. mick shouted at me the last time i sent him a text message ... so he no soft spot for me ...:D:D:D

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

I just voted for one but it dosnt seem to have registered

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

GC, the comp has another week to run yet......and your vote has registered.
I hope that someone else will put some pics in.....or it will be a 'walkover'

Jen, course Mick has a soft spot for you......they always shout at you when they like you....well, that's my hubbys excuse :D

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

well why doesnt spuggie shout at me then ... (he probably knows whats good for him) ....:D:D:D

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Great Pics Jen......love 'em.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

This is more difficult locally than I thought ! Where is a gargoyle when you want one ?

Found an ugly feature in Burnley today ... that's it up to press.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Kate, I told you it doesn't have to be local.....why didn't you get the one in Burnley?
Also, I used Gargoyles as an example, but it doesn't have to be gargoyles.....it can be ANY interesting architectural feature.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

I did put up what I saw in Burnley Margaret ... modern day ugly ... LOL.

Yes, I know a gargoyle was only an example, but couldn't find anything else of interest :( ... and have nothing suitable on file already. Still looking though.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Have just had a look at the pic and I like it....thought it was going to be something really grotesque......but it is eye catching.
More.....Please!
And not just from Kate.:D

Re: Photo Competition 72

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Well done K.S.h > Where was it taken ?

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

congrats cocker, i'm sure he'll come up with something witty for the next comp...once he's got his head out of his tent ;)

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Thanks for your votes, was taken in Singapore in little India.
Struggled picking a theme, I've been after a photo of a Heron the last few days, these things are very nervous and must have cracking hearing, nearest I got was about 600 yards away and it was off, so i picked wildlife, hope you all have some to contribute.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Well done K.S.H. I voted for that one ... 'twas those Red Skinned muscles ...LOL.

You're right, Herons are very nervous ...not sure whether hearing or movement that freaks them ... have one visit me every day (then 2-times me and slips off to see Garinda), maybe I can grab one of it for the next competition, zoom on at full though.

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

ahhhhh WILDlife......can i put a pic of myself in this competition then???

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Congrats :D

Re: Photo Competition 72
 

Well done KSH.
