Time for something different, so here is a scene on the Peak Forest Canal near the Lancashire town of Hyde. A place here where one gets fresh water and some supplies whilst on your canal barge and at the same time let the kids play on the rides. – It looks like some people have waited rather too long for their supplies though :)
HFF, enjoy the weekend and keep safe.

More of a shock really Colin. Far away from my normal landscapes, perhaps reflecting another reality of our times!

I must agree Poly. I have put a much more cheerful picture up next, to compensate for this.

Oh, that was not a criticism of your picture! Perhaps some morbidity is even appropriate in the current situation... :)

Keep safe and have a nice weekend!

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to polytropos ^club

Thanks for this too. Your comment did in fact make me rethink how appropriate this was at this time. At first I thought it simply funny but......

A bit weird for sure. I think in year past, this was quite an attraction but it is slightly out of tune now.

Certainly different from your usual style, Herb! I found myself thinking "Yo Ho Ho, great reflections". HFF, best wishes for the weekend and for your good health.

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne

That's OK Rosa, its a bit unusual for me to put two photos on Ipernity in the same Friday. Two because this was a little bit insensitive maybe?

Such a fascinating looking place..............and there's certainly a lot to look at in this image! I like the reflections too and all the skulls (I wonder what he does with the bodies?).

HFF Herb.............have a good weekend and stay safe :-)

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to Keith Burton ^club

Thanks Keith. the area behind looked a little like an old fairground so the owner of this bit of the canal-bank might have had a travelling fair at one time. An interesting place that really did make us stop and stare.
