The winter of 2015 / 2016 was the wettest that I can ever remember, sadly this brought a devastating flood to Lancashire. I took this photograph during the floods of a beech tree being swamped, as a long exposure photograph it took on a “Chinese painting theme” to me anyway : )
Flying Scotsman Steam Train
The Flying Scotsman Steam train, photographed on the East Lancashire Railway. The winter steam gala certainly lived up to it’s name with a weekend of winter snow. The snow certainly did not put off the 100’s of visitors and truly added to the atmosphere of this historic visit of this most famous train.
City of Wells Steam Train
January Steam Gala on the East Lancashire Railway (ELR) It was a chance to see many different trains the highlight being the Flying Scotsman it historic black livery looked very classy against the backdrop of snow and ice.

Christmas Eve and the Chapel was too full …. so a unexpected chance to watch for Father Christmas as he made his way to Anglesey in North Wales, I am sure there were a few lucky folks with new Christmas camera’s waiting to get out and photograph on Christmas Day.
Singing Ringing Tree
Winter is a great opportunity for some night photography and if lucky a view of the night stars. Weather was looking clear so headed out to visit one of Lancashire’s Panoptican, the Singing Ringing Tree in Burnley.
