Boss photos you've taken

The Japanese Lake is part of the Rivington Terraced Gardens built by the founder of the former Lever Brothers company – now known as Unilever – Lord Leverhulme, who was inspired by one of his trips to Japan. Like the remains of a lost civilisation, the ruins and follies of Lord Leverhulme’s terraced gardens add a real spirit of adventure and discovery to an exploration of Rivington Wood.

They also built Port Sunlight for the factory over the water ;)
 
Lord Leverhulme commissioned a replica of Liverpool Castle to be built on his Rivington estate of Lever Park, near Horwich. The castle is a direct replica of the original medieval Liverpool Castle, which was located near the waterfront in the city. However, that was demolished way back in the 1720s. The castle was incomplete by the time of Lord Leverhulme’s death in 1925. Work stopped, though the majority of the intended layout was in place. Today the castle sadly has its fair share of graffiti...

Took the mini Pro 3 into the night sky tonight to have a look at the photo side of things. File sizes are obviously bigger then the forum allows, but they still look decent.

Located about ten miles north of Preston and on the very western edge of the Forest of Bowland. the picnic site and nature trail (sometimes mistakenly called ‘Brock Bottoms’) is a beauty spot along the river. Brock Bottoms was once the site of a cotton spinning mill, with about 20 cottages built to accommodate the workforce. The mill was probably built in the 1790's.

Salt and pepper Pots - North Yorkshire.

The (Lund's) tower and (Wainman's) pinnacle sit at opposite ends of the rocky outcrop called Earl Crag. Lund's Tower is a stone-built folly situated to the south-west of the North Yorkshire village of Sutton-in-Craven. It is also known as Cowling Pinnacle, Sutton Pinnacle, the Ethel Tower, the Jubilee Tower or, in conjunction with the nearby Wainman's Pinnacle, the pair are referred to as the Salt and Pepper Pots. Here you see Wainman's Pinnacle first before a look at Lund's Tower.
