Huddersfield Narrow Canal, 22/3/15

I’d just like to say a big thank you to the duck at this point.

The tree outside Caroline’s house

Friday 13th February 2015, 10.20pm (day 1,268)

Caroline's tree, 13/2/15

Night out in Leeds to celebrate the birthday of our friend Caroline, will she let me tell you which number birthday it was? Ends in a zero, anyway. This tree sits outside her house, snapped it late on. I like the windows of the houses at the bottom which give it some added interest.

On Watch Hill, 24/1/15

Time for a walk. Watch Hill is near Cockermouth, Cumbria. This is my Zen landscape shot. More will appear on my walking blog in due course (probably tomorrow).

It’s Friday night, and more than welcome. Bex (Rebecca) is the one in the centre by the way. Have a good weekend.

Ellie (youngest house guest)

Saturday 17th January 2015, 8.40pm (day 1,241)

Ellie, 17/1/15

At 8 months old Ellie is not the youngest person to appear on the blog (I make her the 3rd youngest) but she is the youngest house guest we have ever had. She and parents Caroline and Loyd (who appeared on the blog in happy circumstances on 24/8/13) visited this weekend. I chose this shot just because it is different but still displays her fundamental cuteness.

Joe’s homework

Thursday 15th January 2015, 5.00pm (day 1,239)

Joe's homework, 15/1/15

It’s a long period at home — 10 of the 15 shots so far in 2015 have been taken in Hebden Bridge. Though things liven up again come early February, there is no change to come in the next fortnight. So I have to find my creativity where I can, by leeching on the work of others.

On the way to Old Town

Sunday 28th December 2014, 12.15pm (day 1,221)

In the snow, 28/12/14

I have on occasion been known to describe snow as the devil’s mange, but also must admit that the 90 minutes I spent out in it this morning, under clear blue skies, was probably the most beautiful experience of 2014 thus far. These are the moments worth waiting for in life.

White Christmas?

Thursday 25th December 2014, 12.30pm (day 1,218)

Xmas shower, 25/12/14

Well, it may have been snow. Only I and the nearest meteorologist know for sure. A happy Christmas to one and all, wherever you may be, whatever you may have done.

Great Court, British Museum

Friday 19th December 2014, 3.30pm (day 1,212)

Great Court, 19/12/14

A weekend in London, and a second appearance on the blog this year for the British Museum — well, it’s too big to see on one trip. As you’ll see from tomorrow’s picture as well, I’m in a monochrome mood just now.
