Random Photo Thread (not Bikes)

Views from the Billings, a hill at the end of our village. Looking over Barrow in Furness.

And up towards the Lakes (in the distance!)

 

Not great quality, just a screen grab off my son's camera. Nice shot though

 

I got a few more shots of the cereus cactus and their gorgeous blooms before they've now finished up for the season. In that first photo, that's the most blooms at one time that we've ever seen on one of our plants!





We were out with some friends one night and when we came home we saw these two blooms that had opened after dark!

 

Been wading through some old paper photos (remember them!) we came across in a drawer today and found this one, circa Nov '95, of my Collie, Tilly at 8 weeks old and our cat who was at least 10yrs at the time. Can't be more precise than that as she turned up on the doorstep in deep snow, Winter '86/87 and just sort of moved in with us. This pic followed 10 mins of a frantic dog/cat chase round the house until the cat stood her ground and scratched Tilly's nose, leading to a silent stand off. Tilly passed in 2011 but I can remember it like it was yesterday.

 

I love this photo, @Rooster! Where is it? It looks like somewhere in Utah or Arizona to me.

 

Just back from a week's vacation in Maine. Some lighthouse pics. Portland Head light, Bug Light, Pemaquid Point light, a home owner built yard ornament in South Bristol

 

Sunset at Johns Bay

 

Some coastline pics of "Midcoast" Maine. Hardly a grain of sand to be found

 

A couple of out-of-the-way markets that had outstanding chowder and fish-n-chips

 

North Cascades Washington Pass

 

Looks like they had a good weather day

 

A bit of bridle path cycling this afternoon.
Looking towards Ulverston with the Sir John Barrow (Hoad) monument shining in the sun.

 

It's a rainy afternoon, so a few more pics from our west coast tour....
Olympic National Park was next.

Great pics, LeezRyd! I particularly like that third one with the rock face in the foreground.

 

Double rainbow from earlier this week - from front of my house

 

Does your house have subsidence?
