Put some in I took on Saturday ... don't think I have done Accrington any favours though ... LOL.

Think you have to go out very early in the morning, as getting a shot of streets is virtually impossible with all the parked cars, particularly at ground level ... need to be on a roof or in a helicopter. :)

Re: Special photo competition !!!
 

I dunno... them pics are really good!

Re: Special photo competition !!!
 

I like them too......well done Kate.

Re: Special photo competition !!!

Re: Special photo competition !!!
 

I thought that I had some old pics of the Market...how it used to be, when Uncle Dick had a pitch near the fish market.......but can I lay my hands on them??????
I have searched all the places I thought they would be and not found them.

Well what a bad response to photos of your own town:eek:

Re: Special photo competition !!!
 

Oh Bu88er........I took my camera downtown yesterday and the weather turned inclement on me........I was going to try again tomorrow......was going to take a pic of the viaduct and the flower beds.......but they don't look good in the pouring rain.

Still can't locate my pics of the old Accy Market.....Uncle Dick Era.

Re: Special photo competition !!!
 

Re: Special photo competition !!!
 

Hoooray........that will give me a bit more of an opportunity to get some decent pics.
Who wants to see the Viaduct and the flower beds with grey brooding skies as a backdrop?

Re: Special photo competition !!!
 

Seeing as it was fine today, I took my camera down Acc.........took a few shots of the Viaduct, and the flower beds.......none of them were what I really wanted to achieve.......all a bit....ordinary!
Anyway I have uploaded one of the pics.
Now that the closing date has been extended I am hoping to get some better ones....different sites in Accrington.

Re: Special photo competition !!!
 

I have uploaded more pics.....seeing as the sun has come out. It does make the town look prettier than when it is dull and grey.
