A Slice Of Your Life 27/08/18 - 02/09/18

Let's see what you're up to.

Feeling the vintage vibe with an old Pancolar 50mm f1.8 and Fuji's Classic Chrome sim

Walked the girls at 'our beach' yesterday. There is quite a big area of open flat surrounds for the water now, and, because we are still lacking in rain this blew up:

Was not very dense and settled very quickly, but just goes to show how dry the ground is.

[Ryewolf]

I had a trip out to Blackpool with my Mum and sister, whilst they went to watch an ice-skating show at the Pleasure Beach I had a walk along the promenade....

The windswept sea...

This one car park seemed to have a new trend for gull car ornaments - as almost every car had at least one or more of these big gulls sitting on them... Also who knew that gulls have toenails!!!!!!!!!!

A giant mirrorball....

And you can't really go to Blackpool without photographing The Tower.........

[Kobione]

That's taken me  back in time a bit Rye, and isn't your first picture the exact opposite of mine!

[Black Pearl]

Funny what you find when you go out for a morning walk...

[Denis]

Meanwhile on the Woolwich ferry.... 

[Hatter]

We were out hunting scarecrows* yesterday and ran into this chap with an eagle owl.  He let Rosemary hold it.

*more on this later!

[Denis]

Lordy! look at the size of those talons!

[Black Pearl]

Park life.....or death.....or breakfast if you are a seagull

Must be my innocence - or maybe the fact that I was brought up by wolves - but I've only just figured out what it is.

A couple from yesterday.... a bit of a sunset...

And the Two Trees on Pendle...

[Denis]

Love that first one Rye

[Clicker]

Me too Rye ... cracking  light ...

[Ryewolf]

Thanks Denis and Clicker. If we do have a Grand Tour for 2019 I'll take you up here - we might not get the sunset but it's still stunning no matter the weather.

[Clicker]

Its a deal !

[Kobione]

That first sunset shot is a beauty Rye!

Our 'seed eating friend' is back, not that impressed with the rock I had to temporarily put on the table as the strong wind we had the other day has made it wobbly, but he can still reach!:

As usual taken through the back door window so not perfect. He disappeared after a few minutes and about 10 minutes later, as I was sat in the lounge I saw some movement just out of the lounge window - it was him! He had worked his way round the house, nibbling fresh grass, then down a path and ended up just 4 feet from the lounge window. I didn't have a camera within reach, so couldn't even get a record shot, but I'll watch out for him tonight.

[Denis]

That is a bit different from my local squirrel that nicks our birdseed Kobi !

[Denis]

Just like the advert say's....Downed all over Kent, just like the Luftwaffe

[Black Pearl]

One from last nights mutt walk...

[Black Pearl]

Surfs up...

 

[Clicker]

Love the expression on the first pic ....  Nice exposures Beepy ... Gosh he is growing up isn't he ... ?

[Ryewolf]

Canal boats on the Leeds/Liverpool Canal at Foulridge on Saturday.
