Couple of pics of the veggies growing in our garden. First year giving it a go & if successful I'll be extending the veg plot from the 10x5 it is now to about 25x10 & we'll be replacing the plastic greenhouse with a glass/polycarb one.

Thanks Jo, just saw the light and the stillness of the water on the way back from Tesco Local. Dashed up and got my camera to catch it. Bit of HDR post production...

It makes Manchester look quite exotic. :)

With the empty terraces you can almost feel the city holding it's breath before the night time revelers hit the bars and cafés.

The quality of some of the pictures on here has been simply fantastic.

What you are sharing is a window in time of your life. We get the pleasure of gazing on the very image your eye was fixated on for just a brief period.

Sorry to come across all deep and all, I just love when people connect and share their moments.

I snapped this 2 nights ago during an incredibly heavy rain storm. A drain cover had been blown clean off due to the ferocity of the of the water flowing through the drainage system. The picture doesn't fully capture the drama of the moment. The noise and the power of the water blasting up through the hole in the road was impressive.

This was on our willow tree, today, it is apparently a 'Puss Moth' caterpillar.

Re: Photo of the day
 

Went for a ride on my bike this morning and decided to follow the Manchester ship canal to the viaduct that carries the M6 over the canal. I found someone had gone out of there way to paint this on one of the bridge supports. See the photos attached.

It says "Harry Patch 1898 to 09 The Last Tommy RIP"

I love the idea of this urban memorial to one of our heroes. Let's hope that the powers that be clean off this graffiti in their normal 'slow to never' time scale. :)

Great panorama Cobby. I discovered ICE earlier this year and just can't believe how simple to use and effective it is, especially being a free offering from M$!

Re: Photo of the day
 

Thanks for a link to that site, just spent 20mins looking at boats around the world on the live ships map lol!

I need to get out more :D

Re: Photo of the day
 

I did the same. I found it fascinating seeing all the maps and kept clicking on different vessels to see what they were carrying and what their itineraries were. I lost a good hour before I remembered why I had gone to the link in the first place. :D

Re: Photo of the day
 

I wouldn't want to walk along there by myself day or night. :erm:

Re: Photo of the day
 

Yeah the worrying thing was that there were no doors to get out if someone came towards you. Only doors inwards from the car tunnel on the other side.
Believe me it was a long tunnel and I walked pretty quickly after taking that photo.

Re: Photo of the day
 

Never thought I'd see one of these over here!

Re: Photo of the day
 

That must have given you a bit of a smile. Did they actually sell Tetley's beer?

Re: Photo of the day
 

No Jo, it was in a local eclectic furniture/arts & crafts store. It's actually situated in an old roller skating rink my wife used to frequent as a child!

I think they must have bought it while they were over there.

Re: Photo of the day
 

What an interesting store. i would love to have a mooch around, if only it were nearer to Manchester. :D

You know it still gives me a kick hearing you say 'my wife'. Takes me back in time to before you met the lovely Julianne. How different your life is now. :tu: :)

One I took today. The chopper looked like it was coming straight at me while wobbling side to side and was only about 40 foot above me when it went over and landed about 120 foot away. Thought it was in trouble at first. Turns out they were responding to an incident. Made the walk in the park more interesting.

There are a series of four pools that drain from the top down through each one. I think they are the result of clay working. Lots of ducks and quite big fish in them. Very peaceful today.
