This photo may be dull and grey, but hey — that epitomises things, as this was as good as it got today. One of the rare ‘photowhacks’, the one and only picture taken on a given day.

Rain shower, Hebden Bridge station
Tuesday 22nd September 2015, 8.35am (day 1,489)
A familiar scene, given added interest by the drizzle caught in the sun. Worth getting a little wet for. The 8:34 to York departs and my train to Manchester will be along in a few minutes.
Rainy day
Saturday 12th September 2015, 11.30am (day 1,479)
It cleared up considerably after about 1.30pm, but until then was pretty awful, vindicating my decision not to go on a Lake District walk today. These swings only seem to get pictured in bad weather.
September sunset
Tuesday 1st September 2015, 8.00pm (day 1,468)
Allowing for the fact that the first one of all, August 2011, was depicted only partially, September 2015 will be the fiftieth calendar month of this blog. How many times in those fifty months has this view (or ones like it) saved an otherwise drab day?
Clouds over the library
Tuesday 11th August 2015, 11.50am (day 1,447)
First day in Manchester for a while. Ominous clouds, but they passed over without molesting us. I like this shot — trips to deepest Africa notwithstanding, one of my favourite ones for a while.
Under the umbrella
Monday 10th August 2015, 4.15pm (day 1,446)
I returned to work. It rained. Well, these things will happen, they still need documenting…
….and then the rain
Thursday 2nd July 2015, 4.00pm (day 1,407)
Hot and sunny in London yesterday it may have been, but in Manchester this afternoon it was neither of these things, particularly not when I had to walk all the way along Oxford Road getting soaked. At least this girl had an umbrella, even if, like me, she was otherwise dressed for rather nicer conditions.
June storm
Monday 8th June 2015, 5.15pm (day 1,383)
Was up at 5am to go to London for the day to work, and did take a gratuitous shot of Hebden Bridge at that time mainly because I have still yet to offer a shot from the hour of 5:00 – 5:59 in my near four years of doing this blog. However, this one twelve hours later was a more creative effort. Taken from the train home, just south of Peterborough.
More winter
Wednesday 28th January 2015, 3.30pm (day 1,252)
This hail storm was just the prelude, so the forecasts say. All of last week’s snow disappeared overnight on Monday — but it seems this week’s is well on the way.
Snowy sunset
Tuesday 20th January 2015, 3.50pm (day 1,244)
A familiar scene in so many ways, but we should keep our eyes open all the time, you never know when the same old view will take on a subtle character that you’ve not noted before.
