Ice sculpting! ❄️ Just a few snaps from the Glacial Art Ice Sculptors event today. Great sculptures!
I couldn't stay long but, as there was ice, it would have been rude not to have made time for an ice-cream!
Well, the sun was shining, that's my excuse.
Great to see the crocuses springing, too 🌸

A Grand Day Out' 🏖️This photo of mine is proving popular at the minute! Thank you so much to Nadine and also to whoever bought one from the Beachcomber Café and the Hop Shoppe pub in St Anne's recently 🙏🏻

It's sometimes mistaken for a painting but it's my own authentic photo which I have applied a filter to and then manually adjusted to create an effect I'm happy with.

I know it's cold and snowy at home today and I'm fortunate to be in Madeira this week so I'm sending warming vibes your way 😎 Roll on spring!

I love the autumn colours but winter's on its way!
Appreciate the colours while you can, folks 🍁🌿🍂

It's Lancashire Day! 🌹 I must admit, I'm not doing anything special to celebrate (I'm busy working!) but I feel thankful every day to live in such a great part of the UK.
It's Monday 👎 but I hope your week's started well👍
Lancashire hotpot for tea, maybe? 💭

Tarot - I don't practise tarot myself but I know that prints aren't readily available locally for anyone with an interest in the subject or who may just like the designs.
Just message if you'd like a picture featuring a particular card 🌏🃏☀️🌜💘

'Christmas by the Sea' returns to Blackpool this Friday evening along with the Star Flyer which you can see in my photo.
In fact, I took the pic having just made an impulse decision to ride the Flyer and it was great fun!
It's only about 250 feet tall. Have a go! 😀

Couldn't help but stop and take a pic of the stunning crocheted poppy cascade at St Annes Parish Church as I was passing the other day. I've put my own digital spin on it, of course!
I understand over 9k poppies were made! Well done to the bellringers and everyone involved.
What a wonderful tribute ahead of Remembrance weekend ❤️

I sold one of my Blackpool Tower - 'Fireworks' prints yesterday. It reminded me that it's the final night of the World Fireworks Championship in Blackpool this Friday. Italy's turn this week. Good luck! 🎆✨🎇

Now I know what he looks like! 😆 Great show on Weds eve by witty wordsmith Brian Bilston 👌
And he finished in time to catch the last bus home 😉
Look him up if you're unfamiliar. Highly recommended!

Cyndy the cygnet now has a new home! 🐥
I photographed my fluffy Fairhaven friend in May and there's no better place for her than here in the cafe.
(I say 'her' but I could be wrong!)
A big thank you to Donna for choosing several of my images to display. Another post coming shortly when the last one is in place...

Have you seen the Cleveleys Ogre? He's quite friendly!
I created this image for a customer who lives nearby.

😡😢 Shocked, saddened, appalled...what a sickening act of vandalism.
I never photographed it, unfortunately, but this beautiful iconic tree is/was in a stunning location and held special meaning for many people including photographers, nature lovers, couples who got engaged there and families who have scattered loves ones ashes there.
I hope whoever is behind this disgusting act is brought to justice.
Unbelievable.

We are shocked and desperately saddened to learn that the famous Sycamore Gap tree at Hadrian's Wall has been felled overnight, in what appears to be an act of vandalism.

We know just how much this iconic tree is loved locally, nationally and by everyone who has visited.

We are working with our partners to understand what has happened and what can be done.

The incident has also been reported to the police.

☠️Not everyone's cup of tea, but this is one from my skull collection. Maybe I should have a few more in reserve with Halloween not too far away??
Thank you so much to Mark at Seventh Wave Tattoo in St Annes for supporting me by displaying one.
I'll post a couple of pics from his fab shop on Insta very shortly.

One of my large framed donkey pictures has sold this afternoon in Brighter Times gift shop, Lytham.
There's still some time left for school holiday donkey rides, weather permitting!
These 3 were loving their walks when I photographed them 😃🐴🐴🐴
