Nice Photos.

Most of us have taken one or two nice photos.
Here is my candidate as being almost quite good. In fact it is two painstakingly joined.
Taken up in the mountain at Skurdalsvatn in 2000.
Though this one takien in Warsaw in November 2006 is not bad:
I know there are several good photgraphers here, and it would be nice to see some of you best efforts if you feel inclined to share!

I make no claims of the quality of the photo, but of the subject matter!
Passing overhead today, the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight made four passes over the town. They were so low that you could smell as well as hear those glorious RR Merlin engines.
Made this small boy very happy!

Nope! That was at Flamborough Head in Yorkshire! Slightly different formation!
(Not one of mine I should point out)

Bruce I like your use of black and white.....though colour does have its charms.

Colour definitely works for flowers.

Hardly Kew - far too many weeds, but I took this yesterday in my back garden - I love Cowslips

Anacamptis pyramidalis, taken in mid-Suffolk, 22nd July 2006:
Wild Cowslips, or better still Oxslips, are usually quite a good indicator of the likely presence of orchids. Some species of orchid are, of course, out at the same time as the 'slips - like the site I hope to be going to on Monday, at which five species of orchid have been recorded – Common-spotted, Green-winged, Bee, Pyramidal and Frog orchid (for which it is the last remaining site in Suffolk). Other flowers present that are now scarce in Suffolk include Spiny Restharrow and the Sulphur Clover.

Very nice picture James and enjoy your Bank Holiday botanical adventure!
No orchids here but the fritillaries are doing ok - just a pitty the blooms don't last for longer.
Kind regards,

Indeed. Third one it is, 7 years after the second. A very cute baby it is, though that's subjective assessment, but objective assessment would concur surely. Though that's subjective..

My Acer. The colour was even more beautiful a couple of weeks back. It's just starting to turn to it's summer colour of green with pink edges. No such spectacular colour in Autumn with this one though....
