Kirkby Stephens' Poetry Path – The poems have been carved into a series of stones and incorporated into walls and stiles, or planted like milestones along the route of the path. Through the stones walkers can trace the course of a farmer’s year simply by following the route, which loops from Stenkrith near Kirkby Stephen to Hartley and back.

surely a path with leaves would give better information than the leaves on the bottom of a tea cup ....if it was actually a thing.
i do of course realise it is all a lot of nonsense
Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Pretending To See The Future
Lytham Hall has a 'snowdrop trail', which is essentially a patch of woods with lots of these planted under the trees, and a path winding through. I got there just in time - some flowers had already faded, but others were still in their prime. I tried several lenses, standing and crouching and lying on the leaf litter, but didn't get any shots that quite satisfied me. One of the most successful setups was a long lens with extension tube, allowing slightly closer focus. With this, you can pick out individual blooms, almost as a still life, but without having to leave the trail. I should probably have cleared some of the debris away in this shot, but it adds context, and I like the glow of the blooms on a sombre background. By this point, a heavy shower cloud had swept in, which actually helped with correct exposure.

Block courtesy of my KBeeC ladies. Their blocks were perfect. My technique in making a perfectly seamed quilt? Not so much. But the end result is lovely.
Thanks ladies!
Path behind the dunes at Talacre beach.
This image has been given a retro, "high contrast" feel in photoshop by creating a black and white layer, then changing the blending mode to Soft Light.
This area at one time was hot for mining with a railroad, there's even remnants of what looked a loading area. It's just up from Georgetown, Co.
