Corrugated iron boathouse at Williamstown Harbour on the western shore of Lough Derg, County Clare.

The historic chute, situated next to Scarborough's Open Air Theatre, originally opened in 1932, after taking four years to build. In front runs a train on the North Bay Railway which was built in 1931 to the gauge of 20 inches. It runs for approximately 7⁄8 mile between Peasholm Park and Scalby Mills in the North Bay area of the town.

Late afternoon sunshine on a deserted beach at Echo Lake State Park.

Thaungthaman Lake on the outskirts of Mandalay is a popular tourist spot and there are plenty of boatmen willing to take you for a trip across the waters. At dusk a lone boatman heads for his home mooring after a lucrative day.

A perfect summer's day for a walk up a mountain. Today's walk took in slate quarries above Coniston and then on up to the summit of the Old Man of Coniston. Looking back down from close to the summit, the nearer lake is Low Water and in the distance is Levers Water. The latter was created as a reservoir for the copper mines just visible at the right margin of the view.

Late afternoon on Lough Derg

It was a rough and squally day for a trip on Lough Derg on a barge, but the changeable weather made for some fine atmospheric scenes as we headed home in the late afternoon. This view was taken looking south-west whilst heading between Williamstown Harbour and Dromineer.

A bright start to New Year's Day 2007 and a brisk walk around Rudyard Lake was in order. The reservoir was looking its best in the pale sunshine.
