Photo-a-Day  (Friday, 9th November, 2012)

Lovely photo. Wish I was there. Not too hard to believe Janice, when you have worked underground you see all the subsidence from a different perspective.

Could some one tell me what the minimum wage is in the UK (WIGAN)

What a lovely picture, so green, hard to believe that it is created by mining subsidence!!!! Lovely Janice, cheers!!

A very peaceful scene, Janice. Photo can`t be recent, as no autumn tints? At first glance, the water in the gap between the trees, looks like a waterfall!
For Ken (comment yesterday at 15:30), this is in Leigh. For info on Pennington Flash see my comment on P-a-D 30th Sept.`12.

This photo is short of a duck,swan, man in a boat.

Taken around mid September Ernest. Can see what you mean about the waterfall! Mick,don't wish to be rude but your constant negativity (attempts at sarcasm?)are becoming boring I am afraid.

Thanks Janice, if you look from a short distance away, the `waterfall`is more prominent.

I go around that part often in the Summer and the trees in the distance are on what was a landfill ( or tip ) and shows what you can achieve if you try !

Very nice Janice,you wouldn't think when you walk round Pennington flash you were only a short distance from Leigh town centre.

Lovely shot, and just shows Beauty can come from the Beast. keep up the great piccys

I can definately see what you mean Ernest. Even if you look directly at the water between the trees, it looks like a wide waterfall. It's a strange optical illusion.
Nice photo Janice!

Ernest your right the water in the middle of the photo looks lower well spotted I wonder whats making it look like that.

Nice shot, like the hdr processing.

HDR processing Jeff whats that when its at home.

Mick, I`ve never heard of HDR but all I did was go on Google and Wikipedia gives the info on ;-

Just had a look Ernest maybe thats why the waters looking bent.

Never ever seen a "waterfall" on a still water flash.
Mind you some would have us paddlin' uphill on't village pond next..;o)
