My ramblings, my photos, photography, image editing, etc.

An Adventure to Blackburn

These are some photos from yesterday’s Ingress ViaLux Adventure to Blackburn.

I took the scenic route again. I.e not the motorway, so I could stop off at portals on the way. The blurb with them is a bit thin but I like the photos. As usual you can view them on Flickr.

One stop off was on Two Laws Road on the way to Laneshaw Bridge. This 180 deg panorama was taken a little way before The Atom – Panopticon. Just after passing Watersheddles Reservoir.

This is The Atom – Panopticon itself. Just off the road above Pendle’s Panopticon Atom above the Wycoller Country Park.

They have these bell like things in Blackburn too. There are several in Bradford. I have often wondered what would happen if you hit one in a car.
