Mundane Thread Photographic Edition

That’s pretty impressive.

Loving the snow pics. I miss snow (when it has just snowed properly, not the slushy aftermath).

[Forest Gump]

Quite the sunrise this morning.

[Artificial Hipster]

Wow!

[Nocturnal Submission]

Walthamstow's sailors and shepherds must be shitting themselves.

Me and the mutt freezing our knackers off on Manobier beach yesterday: our 1st full day down in West Wales. Think we broke some local covid law driving 5 mins to the beach, mind, so don’t grass us up to local plod.

Manobier Castle ruins.

So, this is obviously zoomed and cropped and suffering some distortion through the atmosphere, but that's the view from my back garden of the Main Stand at Anfield, which is something like 10 or 11 miles away. Haven't figured out where the tower block in front of it is located, possibly somewhere in Bootle? I know it's not the infamous Bootle Triad office building because that's out of shot to the right.

I take it that’s the church steeple at Little Crosby next to where my two sisters live?

A Wintry walk down at the Calder Glen.

Some beautiful pictures on here, gang.

Taken while I was home just after Christmas - looking down the footpath from Moel Famau towards Rhuthun

And a view of a different mountain - Kilimanjaro, taken on one of my recent bike rides.

Fantastic.

It's Farsang weekend, which is the local version of carnival. The culmination is a funeral ceremony for the farsang* when there is some form of topical theme (no surprises to guess what this year's theme was). Normally this is one village hosting all the villages of the county, but this year every village was seperate though as you can see there isn't much social distancing or mask wearing

(farsang is actually the period between new year and the beginning of lent. It's traditionally a time of partying and excess - there's still food stored and there's no work to be done in the fields)

And a very short video

Happy Valentine's Day!

I take it that’s the church steeple at Little Crosby next to where my two sisters live?

I was about say 'yes' when I realised it couldn't be, as there's no way there could be a row of houses between me and there. After a bit of google mapping I reckon it's St.Luke's in Crosby village.

[torres]

Ah right. I thought it was that small enclave of houses at the double bend.

San Bernardhinault that’s beautiful, where is it?

Sits I’m back in San Diego this week. That’s the view from Sunset Cliffs (how did it get that name? I don’t know...) using the wide angle on my newish iPhone.

Thanks SB, if I paid attention I’d have remembered you were back there. I was imagining a sunrise at Cape Cod or similar.

Here’s an ocotillo from out in the desert today. It might be my favourite cactus.
