Welcome back Peter. I've been waiting for someone more experienced than me in these matters to advise you on what's gone wrong with your link. Have you tried sending a PM to the PU team?

They're very good Gary as were those posted by PUF members who had a meet there.

I haven't been there either, and I live less than ten miles away. My excuse is that I'm not a birdy photographer and my longest lens is 200mm

They now reject them if they are smaller than that John - they just won't upload. I submit far larger pictures and I think when they are too large they automatically resize them.

I still post pictures on PPG but I don't think you're restricted to 900 pixels wide John. They like 'em bigger than that and I think 900pxiels high is the minimum size they will accept.
Like Alan I vote thumbs up for only a minority - but that's the way it should be. This is after all an international salon of sorts and PPG themselves will want it this way.
It is now taking a lot longer before you get results on your submissions - around six weeks.

The cold air helps to produce plenty of steam and the sun adds to the lovely colour. Its a fine photo.

Its a great documentary series, telling a story that is repeated throughout the industrial world. Did you come across anyone sleeping rough? There is evidence that they are there in your photos but I wonder how they would react to you photographing them.

That's a lovely shot John. Since my earlier post I've been to Lanchester and sure enough there was no snow on the hills but there was icy slush beside the road on a country lane.

PS: I take it the BDH stands for Braes of Derwent Hunt.

I agree, the light is subdued and classy. I hope to get some snowy scenes up here in the North East soon.

I heard about it on Radio 4 News this morning. They said there was widespread snow in The North and some people had been stranded in cars for up to eight hours. Lest anyone fears for those of us who also live oop North, the Far North that is, (Barrie, Stan, Geordie, Alan, Geordie Tom etc) I can assure them that when I looked out of the window in Durham the sun was manfully attempting to shine through thin clouds and the only white stuff was frost on cars and in the garden.
I can't speak for the high ground however, I've not yet heard from any one in Consett or Alston.
Pity, I can't wait to get out and grab some winter shots.
