Mirror Lab Pro on a Galaxy Note9. Cloud photo opened to preset filter number 43 called Kaleidoscope 2.
In the central hall of the museum is the large organ, originally built in 1901. A free public recital is given daily. The acoustic of the hall worked well for me.
They remind me of broccolini to look at. You can even eat some, but not all types. And they need careful preparation to reduce bitterness and sometimes toxicity.
I think I'll just enjoy looking at them!
A bee visits some common ragwort.
This plant is potentially lethal to horse and cattle but is the natural feeding plant for the cinnabar moth, whose numbers are down considerably in the last few years. This particular plant was also full of bees doing their pollination job. Humans should not touch this plant either as it can cause rashes and other irritations.
As I stood next to it in the sunshine, there was the most amazing smell of honey coming from it.
Outside the entrance to Lancaster Priory stands this mounting block. It would do for the smallest pony or tallest Hanoverian Warmblood.
Make lemon curd.

More than 6500 Trig Points, or Triangulation Points, were built across Britain between 1936 and 1962, as part of a big project to re-triangulate Britain. The last observation was made in 1962 from Thornley Gale, Cumbria.
This one is at the top of Arnside Knott. It's easy to see that it isn't used any more as trees obscuring the view had grown up around it. However, trig points are still marked on OS maps, and useful landmarks for walkers.
GPS has made these markers redundant for survey purposes.
This really isn't good enough.
There are several British Standards that this footpath fails to meet.
Massive social care costs to councils means that there is little money left to maintain the streets.
This really isn't good enough!
A batch of winter shots after a night in the fridge. The bits settle so it's important to shake the bottle before pouring a 50ml daily dose.
Seen on my walk from work. All these ceramics are made in a traditional pottery at Stoke-on-Trent,home of England's potteries. If you have some old British plates and wotnot, likely they were made in Stoke.

Fun facts: the butterfly has been chosen as an international symbol for people with ADHD. Many people in the UK criminal justice system have been identified as being affected by ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) (whether they have been diagnosed formally or not). The waiting list for a diagnosis in England varies (according to which health trust you fall under) between 12 weeks and 10 years. One of the characteristics of ADHD is impulsive behavior.
There's an interesting art trail in Morecambe that will take a few hours to walk around. In this car park are several metal birds which brighten up some very dull tarmac.

The tide returns and the little passenger ferry makes its way across, executing a perfect ferry glide against the incoming current.
The season for this tree is short. soon the road will be covered in pink confetti.
Police horses take a break at the end of the bridge.
I called this zuppa d'avventura (they seem to like fancy names) and topped with some shredded mozzarella.
This is the former YMCA building on China Street, Lancaster.

The building was derelict for a decade and then converted into student apartments.
The actual door and the way the ground floor windows are used are, IMHO, unimaginative and sub-par. There are holes in the lintel for a light - so why not fix one? Especially when those steps are so worn.
