Not had chance to get out and about with the camera for the last couple of weeks which has doe me in but all change from next week so with a bit of luck should have some pictures to post. Just seen over my Manchester back garden probably the last Swallow of the year, flying alone and in a southerly direction. Such a sad day but it ill soon be late March when they return. Steve

Baby Thomas latest. He just never stops smiling. Steve

Story of my life Steve

Thanks for posting Ste. The little one will be fine my friend. He,s got good strong genes. Ste n Lou. X

Suz. Isnt it great how the stepping stones look just like mallards Steve

Lovely picture Dave. But I prefer real naked ladies. Sorry just cant help it. Steve

Great record. Steve

Tune. As good as it gets. imho. Steve

Like to see all your dog pictures. Love the commitment that you can give to the creatures. My mum and dad used to have cocker spaniels and my brother Jeff had a working Springer spaniel, God that was as mad as a box of frog's. I personally haven't got the time to commit to a dog, which they definitely need. So I won't have one. Steve

Rest in peace. Salty. Another one taken far to soon. Steve

Glad to hear that your well. Weather conditions in and around here have been great basically all week. Don't care about yesterday, today, tomorrow and Tuesday. Because I'm Working. But I just ordered good weather for the rest of the week until I'm back in work next Sunday. Then it can do what it wants. Ha ha. The kids are all back in school. Peace and quite when I'm out and about with the camera. Steve

Good evening to you to my friend. Very well here thank you. Good yourself ? Don't like this time of year. Nights drawing in , dark when I get up at 5am. Looking on the bright side , it's only 6 months until my favourite time of the year. Spring. Me the eternal optimist. Steve

Sunset about 10 minutes ago in my North Manchester back garden. Just love the way the trees pale into insignificance against the massive sky and the dramatic colour in the other picture. Nature is a special thing Steve

sorry but never in a million years is it a £100 record. Would have said £30 to £40 is a realistic price Steve

Not anymore Den , well not since Joe passed away. There's been the odd one but not often Steve

Me too mate. Me too Steve

There,s one on the bay at the moment £100 six hours to go Steve

There,s only millionaires can afford to buy off auction on JM. its never a auction record in the first place, but thanks for posting Steve

Last couple of pictures from Ingleton . the river,s Twiss and Doe meet in the village to form the river Greta which in itself is a tributary of the river Lune which flows into Morecambe bay at Lancaster. Steve

This last picture was taken in total darkness with no flash photography allowed. The blue colour on the stalactites is a naturally occurring phenomen that is extremely rarely anywhere in the world and it was worth the journey just to see this. Steve

The sound of this waterfall deep underground was simply amazing, the power of the water had to be seen. Infact the caves only reopened yesterday at 11.30 am after being closed for two days due to flooding following torrential rain in this part of the country. The power of the water ripped up the entrance steps which when you think some of the steps are 4x2 York stone . you can imagine.

I,ve reached my maximum upload for the moment Steve
