Thanks Bill, much appreciated.Catching up, two great shots Keith. I really like the colours in the liquid shot and the b&w really suits the distant shot well.

Thanks HelenLiquid: Great capture and nicely symmetrical.
Distant: the mono conversion really adds to the atmosphere. Even at a distance she looks distant
Lol it's a flower, I had an idea for a scene that depicted the fragile nature of our colourful wildlife but didn't think it would be obvious enough.Sorry but I'm lost on this one for fragile, unless the red thing was a ball that popped.
You have better eyes than me, I thought he was looking at the dog.I like this, but the look on the blokes face is what I like best, don't look to happy about having his picture took!
Prob just my paranoia Keith!You have better eyes than me, I thought he was looking at the dog.
How the heck do the Rats get up to a loft !! Never ceases to amaze me how these things happen.I've just had to evict (before they had chicks) sparrows from my roof. They had been there for twenty years, usually about five pairs, but earlier this year the rats found their way in using the sparrows homes and we had to get a pest controller in because we now had rats in the loft. Dealt with them but had to close up all the holes and the sparrows have had to find somewhere else to go. Probably just as well as I found they weren't nesting in the place I thought but were between the tiles and the roofing felt and over the years they've made a right mess that could only really be cleared by removing the roof tiles and taking all the nest material away before replacement; that's a job for another day.
Cheers Peter.Well spotted.
They are well named House Sparrows.

Sounds like a big problem, maybe I should nip round and warn the neighbours in case they have the same problem.
Strewth !!An outhouse with a gutter that goes up to the roofline, then they just walk along the top gutter looking for, well, anything really. They can, if they think there's something worth doing it for, do the proverbial 'rat up a drainpipe' thing. They are in turn surprising and a irritating because once established in a roofspace they are remarkably difficult to get rid of. If one lives in a semi-detached or worse (like I do) in a terrace, they can inhabit the whole row of houses given the chance.
They aren't as bad a squirrels in the loft though, they are truly a nightmare and will destroy everything (yes, in a different house, I had those too) and they can just climb up the outside walls.
Thanks DaveThat's a fab story
Thanks BillGreat image this week Keith and such a wonderful story to go with it. Well done.
Yes there's nothing else left when it comes to local shops, all the other s have gone now.That's a lovely documentary. Good to hear something survives from our "yoof"
Fishermen order their live bait and collect the day before the local matches, it's a lot of hard smelly work but obviously pays off, they've done it for decades.Great back story on the shop, lost so many local shops to the chains/online shopping
Thanks RogerExcellent story, thanks for sharing it, love the old fashioned shop look in days of "tackiness".
Well I haven't had much time to concentrate on the weekly theme this week, then I was standing in the garden and hey presto.That's an original take on the theme!
Cheers BillGood eye Keith, it works well for the theme.
Cheers PeteTicks the box, and original.

Cheers HelenDoes what it needs to do and nice dof the focus the eye on the centre of the shot.
