Taken on the slopes of Kinder. Wherever you see a stand of Silver Birch trees Fly Agaric will usually be present.
Another couple of hours out today, judiciously timed to catch a remarkable six freight movements in the Northwich area.
Arguably the pick is DB Cargo Shed 66115 easing the 10.00am Dowlow Briggs Sidings - Southampton Up Yard (6O11) loaded limestone around the tight curve at Northwich, and on to the single track Middlewich line.
There's a nice network of footbridges over the Northwich Triangle giving good access to pedestrians around the local residential area. I liked the patina and texture of the one in frame and the shot was composed to give this quaint low-sided bridge at least equal prominence with the train. The houses on the right lie on Royle Street.

These are the stepping stones at The Meeting of The Waters in Tollymore Forest Park. It's a special spot where two rivers meet, and can be tricky to get without people in the shot, but a midweek morning it was clear. The leaves were just starting to turn their Autumn colours.
This is a place I keep on returning to photograph as I love it. CPL filter and tripod used.
Just one of those mundane daily moments when out for a walk on this day. I like the lines with the handrail and the long slim cloud. Also contrast on the steps from dark on the left to bright on th right. A simple play with light. Within a few seconds the cloud was gone so 'had to be there to see it'. What photography is often about and what I enjoy. Good one.
Stepping stones across the River Porter in Endcliffe Park, Sheffield. Almost 70 years since I was first led across them by my parents.
It can be incredibly rewarding to find a subject that speaks in whispers, seeking to challenge you. Some opportunities require work on technical issues such as exposure, and angle. Others make you work through the composition inspiring you to tell the story that sits in front of you.
What finally unveiled itself were stepping stones that could also serve as a leading line. One almost wants to step out on them to cross over to the larger rocky outcropping to see what lay beyond.
