I’d love to be in Liverpool at the moment with all that’s happening there 🙂

 

I've snapped lots of outer-edge stuff on Eurovision, but I won't be attending any song contests. There's always something going on here in Beatle Town.

Snow: (with image IDs now added)

 

A spring snow storm a few years ago. This spring it hit 80 degrees F a few weeks ago. I guess that's why we are always so fascinated by the weather, especially its extremes. FR5XW5

I think this is my favorite shot from that storm: FR5XW9

 

chappaqua-new-york-usa-21st-march-2016-s

 

This one's from a February storm. We're well supplied with firewood, thanks to another weather phenomenon - Hurricane Sandy took down an ancient oak in my neighbor's yard and this is from the huge portion of the trunk that landed on two cars in our driveway and brushed along the edge of our house. We've still got lots of firewood left all these years later. And we gave a lot away. The old fence has since deteriorated and come down but those logs are tough. D35X66

Hi Harry, 

 

Although it's nice for all to see the actual images everyone's submitting, it's actually really helpful for us to get the image IDs, as ultimately, we add all the images to our lightbox which is then shared on twitter and with customers at the end of each month. Which ever way you decide to submit, we enjoy receiving the entries and curating the resulting lightbox! 

 

Thanks,

Louise 

Thanks Louise

 

Here are my image references:

Best,

I got one in the final cut too!

Well done Michael 👏

 

Mrs Hyde and her umbrella is in there as well. Actually that image has been a nice little earner for me since uploading it.
