Here’s a few I managed between the rain showers yesterday

Did anyone else manage anything? It’s been thoroughly rubbish here in North Wales the past two days!

Which country are you in? I got soaked LOL!

Nice Pics.

Well, it was either sunny, or biblical, with a little ‘fine rain that wets you through’ somewhere in between. Today was worse. Once i’ve dried the camera out, i’ll see if I got anything worthwhile today….

Excellent pictures, Zokes!

Here’s a few of mine:

Common Spotted Orchid

Bird’s-nest Orchid

Could really use some help identifying this one!

Greater Butterfly Orchid

Early Purple Orchid

Burnt Orchid

Knapweed Broomrape (I’m pretty sure)

Sorry if they’re a bit big!

Zokes are you using a mirror lens? The bokeh in the third picture looks a bit odd

Saturday a quick local ride to the mosque to see how my back was holding out

Sunday – rode into the mountains in search of an abandoned monastery

Common Dog Violet

Marsh Spotted Orchid

Bird’s Foot Trefoil

Devil’s Bit Scabious

Common wood Sorrel

Forget-Me-Nots

A little more urban, from my ride into Manchester today

A advice from a Tib Street porn shop

And my fave

@Simon Ralli

Can you get some pic of “Bomb Proof House” at Gib. My old man was there in NS Somerset & Cornwall LI 🙂

Redthunfder – any idea the name of the road – is that at the end of Line Wall Road just after you go past the Bristol Hotel, it’s on the right?

It’s opposite the church where the NAFFI was..

I want to see a MTb in this pic (on the roof);-)

New friends made while walking the dog on Saturday. Grumpy buggers though.

HackneyRider tried to stroke one of those things on the South Downs, Dez, but it weren’t having it.

After posting for some advice on a dslr recently, I bought a Canon 40D. Weather wasn’t too bad on Saturday so went down to the Mumbles where there was a kite surfing competition on. The wind was very strong with squally showers, didn’t get a good opportunity to take any impressive shots. Went down to the Mumbles pier where I took some landscape photos.

Pretty new to this, but they look ok for a first effort (in my opinion).

Ok I know where that is but i think it’s closed to mere civilians such as myself. Will have to get up there, maybe tomorrow night which will be the last night I have my bike before it gets taken apart ready for transit

I’ve taken pictures at 3 fell races this weekend.

Nick Craig ran two of them finishing a creditable 2nd and 3rd overall. Not bad for a 40 year old mountain biker 😉

3 of my favorite pics.

THey ain’t friendly..stomping their hooves at me dog. Tried to video the meeting but they made me jump when they stampeded!

Ah, you soft get! You have to show them who’s boss. One looked at me a bit funny, but told it to behave. It knew the score…

Redthunder; is that Walthamstein Marshes???

Today at Llandegla, as per OP proper wet but with a few bright spells

As for flowers we have this in the garden.

Found this in the local pub carpark

Apologies for poor quality phone camera
