I've had several requests to post some pics I took round my site yesterday on this board, so here they are.
Beautiful! So misty and frost...I half expect Sherlock Holmes to start walking along the lane!
In the bleak midwinter springs to mind ...
That lane appears to be just as the roads round Birmingham were in Holmes' day, except that it takes less traffic; they would have had a lot less grass and more mud. It's even got the old passing places still there from 1840.
I like these pictures very much. I think I will use picture number 2 as my wallpaper for a while if it's ok with you, Robert? Thanks
Great pictures Robert! You've really captured something of winter...well done!
Robert so glad you put your beautiful pictures in here , so many people can see them they are so nice.

Of course it's OK; if you want a bigger version send me your Email. The one thing I can't recapture is the discomfort of spending hours working inside in those conditions!
What beautiful photos - can almost feel the crisp cold air going thru me and the 'crunch' under my feet!!...just lovely
Fab photos - I just love the one with the 'secret garden' gate. :)
Lovely photos Robert. I like the one of the pool best.
The gate is actually mine, seen from the inside. The pool is just outside the site, in a patch of woodland which is leased to the Botanical Gardens. They took over part of the gardens in rto Sixties, while the Council was shilly-shallying over taking them on, threw all the tenants off, used part of it as the TV garden for a while in the Seventies, and apart from that never did anything with the land.
