The Woods are all on a steep Eastern facing slope near Billinge Beacon, so soon lose the sunlight in the afternoon, creating contrasting areas of shadows and light, my favourite!!
Fuji XT2, 10-24mm Fuji Lens.

Billinge Plantation, a Woodland Trust site.
I took advantage of the low, bright Sun on a cold, clear day to take long shadow images of the trees at the top of this Plantation in Billinge.

Crosby Seafront
With the promise/threat of a high tide and strong winds from Storm Brian, I headed off to Crosby Beach where Gormley's 'Another Place' sculptures stand (they of course were well under water!).
There were plenty of people watching the unfolding drama, some a little more reckless than others, so I decided to take photos of them as well as some 'standard' wave images.
Fuji XT20, 10-24mm and 55-200mm lenses (so I could keep my distance, I'm not ruining my expensive equipment in salt water thank you!).

Douglas Valley Worthington Reservoir
At the head of the three reservoirs at Worthington, the River Douglas falls through a wooded area before being slowed and captured for a while as it flows towards Wigan.
