@Hans: if I could Hans, I would travel the world with my camera and write poetry, I'd stop by and visit all my blogger friends and share stories. I'm hoping that in my next life I will be a photographer who knows all the languages of the world and have the sky as my home...oh well, thanks for letting me dream :)

Ian Bramham from Manchester, United Kingdom
weird but wonderful!!!....the red circles look so strange against the rest of the image (is it really a target?)

@Ian Bramham: Hi Ian, yes it is, it's on a school wall...with the snow slowly disappearing I imagine they'll start up the activity again, I'll be watching ;) thanks always...
Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom
You will need to lob a few snowballs at the target. Good shot, I sense that the snow must be melting away now a bit down your way.
9 Apr 2008 10:43pm
@Richard_Irwin: I am thrilled to report that the snow is melting, but the radio announcer just said that it wouild snow tomorrow and saturday, so I threw a dart at my radio ;)
