Another image from Daws Hall - I love the reflections of the bushes in the water especially the curved branches that appear to carry on with thier arc.
Wondering through the forested area at Daws Hall Nature Reserve and Gardens in Suffolk this little guy caught my eye. It was growing on moss on a tree trunk - only about 5mm to 10mm tall. No idea what sort of toadstool it is but no doubt someone out there knows.
A Class 185 First TransPennine Express unit is seen heading towards Manchester Piccadilly, crossing over Stockport's famous viaduct.

It's magical when you witness a sunrise like this over the most beautiful harbour in the world.
This was taken from Dawes Point last Sunday morning. In case you were sleeping, this is what you missed...:-)
I hope you enjoy this image.

The Wyrley and Essington Canal in Brownhills, Walsall, West Midlands.
When built the canal ran from Wolverhampton to Huddlesford Junction near Lichfield, with a number of branches. Today some parts of the canal are currently derelict. Pending planned restoration to Huddlesford, the navigable mainline now terminates at Ogley Junction near Brownhills. In 2008 it was designated a Local Nature Reserve.
The canal was built to allow transport of coal from coal mines near Wyrley, Essington and New Invention to Wolverhampton and Walsall, but also carried limestone and other goods. An Act of Parliament received the Royal Assent in 1792 which authorised the construction of the canal from the BCN Main Line near Wolverhampton to Wyrley Bank, and the raising of up to £45,000 to pay for construction. William Pitt was appointed engineer.
A second act received Royal Assent in 1794, which authorised a long extension, from Sneyd (thus making the line from Sneyd to Wyrley Bank effectively a branch) past Lichfield to Huddlesford Junction on the Coventry Canal, together with the raising of up to £115,000 (£11 million in today’s money), to complete construction.
The canal, including the extension, was open throughout by 1797. In February 1840, the Daw End branch was linked to the Tame Valley Canal by the Rushall Canal which included 9 locks. The section from Ogley Junction to Huddlesford is now known as the Lichfield Canal and is derelict, having been abandoned in 1955, under the terms of an Act of Abandonment obtained in 1954. It is now the subject of restoration.

Tyseley's Pannier's, Nos. L94 (7752) & 9600 drift past Daw Mill Colliery on 14th April 2012 while working Vintage Trains 'East Midlands Rambler' 1Z84 0755 Tyseley Warwick Road - Tyseley Warwick Road via Lichfield & Coalville. L94 (previously BR No,. 7752), was one of several Pannier Tanks purchased by London Transport from BR to haul engineering trains around their system, hence the livery carried today. Daw Mill Colliery closed less than a year later in March 2013 due to the consequences of a serious underground fire. It had been Britain's biggest coal producer but doubts over it's future were already circulating in early 2012. Copyright Photograph John Whitehouse - all rights reserved

I had never seen a photo taken from here and just went on a bit of a gamble that I could get a nice shot. Unfortunately the Sun is a bit far round but apart from that I feel its a great location and will be returning for other workings in the future
