I love these. The ice seems like 3D. My absolute favourite is the close up view in No. 3 where you've isolated just the essential elements of the picture. The colour in the vessel contrasts superbly with the mono ice and water.

Great shots, as always, they really portray winter in an artistic way. If I had to name a favourite it would be the icy groyne, the shapes are fantastic. And I like the lights out to sea - are they rigs, ships or some sort of navigation beacons?

PS Just noticed I've now reached 500 posts. Still a long way to go before I get near the totals of marathon men like John Riley, George Lazarette, Mannesty etc.

I like the images as a set, so imaginative and keenly observed. I hesitate to pick a favourite, I think the project works best as a portfolio collection.

The mono version, No. 2, for me. Its so much more dynamic.

I could do the Sunday, how's everyone else fixed?

Here's one I saw in an English Cotswolds cafe.

Those pictures cheer me up Peter. Its freezing cold here, has been for weeks, I've got a stinking cold and I'm losing my voice. Honey is good for a sore throat I believe.

OOPS, My wife has just pointed I can't be there that day. It's our grandson's first birthday party and we'll be in Halifax for that.
Sorry,
David

Its a while since I visited this conversation, good to see its still on course for Saturday March 6. (Hope you can make it Alan). The coffee shop at The Quays seems like a good place to meet. What about the time to meet? Is 10.30am OK? This would give more time for those who travel a distance, such as Northumberland or York or Leeds.
PS: Thanks for your compliment on my picture George.
Don't forget the puffins Helen and Ken can bring some of his spare goldfinches along.

Andrew, your entry certainly wasn't obscure or put to shame by any of the others. It was a very apt commentary on modern culture.
