Winter sun in the Medlock Valley

Winter sun in the Medlock Valley
The river Medlock cuts through the edge of my home town Oldham, In the past this was for many years a dreadfully polluted river. Not helped by many cotton mills and open tips along its banks. Now, thankfully it is clean enough here for large fish in places. Another shot here of perhaps our biggest snowfall of the 2019/20 winter.

Enjoy.

Looks decidedly chilly where as we are enjoying bright sun this morning. Let us hope that Spring is firmly fixed now ~~~ Enjoy your week Herb

Bright sun here as I write this too and so another reservoir outing this afternoon perhaps. Glad you liked it.

Cheers, Herb

Beautiful light..............and I love the sunburst coming through the branches which look very pretty with the dusting of snow. A wonderful winters landscape shot Herb.

The river looks to be running pretty fast............and seems to be undercutting the banks, which will give way sooner or later!

Thanks a lot Kieth. Yes the river was high after all this rain and as you say, erosion is rampant in this valley. Things always look better in a mantle of snow though.

Cheers, Herb

You have it to rights there Rosa. Seemingly we can't have everything.

Keep safe in this escalating Covid 19 virus stuff. Herb

Lothar my friend - as usual your comments are are written with though and feelings. Yes the snows are gone I think but I still have some snow in my latest photographs from The Yorkshire dales done some days ago, so you will yet seem more here.

Best Wishes and keep safe in these uncertain times. Herbert

Lovely light and a beautiful winter scene, Herb. Interestingly, some of my ancestors came (long ago) from Gorton which is nearby.
