My picture of the day-Where's yours?

[Dave 123]

I'm a bit annoyed I haven't managed my normal tranche of autumnal leaves photos - when I've been out I've either not had the light, or not had the right scenes.

I love Beech trees, but at this time of year they're just stunning!

And where is the one of you......

Oh, um.... there was this terrible camera malfunction.

Actually, it really does look like photos of me at the event are thin on the ground. This is the only one I can come up with at the moment:

I'm second from left of pic for those who don't know. Photo courtesy of Gemma B.

Just from a book, I was re-reading last night
I took a picture, just to amuse a friend, who's a biker-bird (as I call her, to her face)

What a wonderful turn of phrase Paul Sample has!
I guess some of you will recognise the charactor

Apologies for the blurriness, but the AF couldn't focus on the paper correctly

Dinner-time

After a trip into Wakefield, to pick something up, I had a quick call at Chantry Bridge

The 'PackHorse Bridge'
There's no water in evidence now, it's either dried up (re-routed upstream?) or culverted

Anybody fancy a beach hut project ?

I bet it still fetches silly money

Here's my picture of the day from Wednesday. It's a bit King Billy in the van this time of year.

Wow, this pic is still getting likes. Unbelievably, although I'm not doing that any more, I actually miss it.

Quick jaunt this morning. I need to get bike fitness back for next year's project. So, back lanes to Disley, over the top to Whaley Bridge then back home via New Mills. Gorgeous weather. Now to pack for this weekend's backpack over Bleaklow and Kinder, wild camping along the way.

I’m very jealous. Won’t it be a bit cold?

It was about 5C here today. Dry though. Not too bad when well wrapped up.

Or perhaps you meant camping. So yes, snow expected, probably below freezing. Me and my dog are well equipped and pretty experienced. Our bags are packed, including Islay's doggy panniers.
