For the new month, here's a March image from one of my @geograph-gbi.bsky.social calendars, taken on this day five years ago: Looking North at Minsmere Haven.

A view north along a curving coastline, in a slanting winter afternoon light. On the left are low dunes, on which the photographer is standing; occasional World War II anti-tank defences, in the form of concrete cubes, jut out at angles. On the right of the picture the shadows of the dunes cover the beach, then beyond that the sea, coloured slightly purple by the setting sun. A young man with red curly hair, wearing a duffle coat, is standing not far from the photographer, looking away up the coast; other figures are dotted along the beach at various intervals.

But, of course, the more photos the better in any square. Every visit brings a new perspective and maybe different weather or season. And things change, though some places quicker than others.
Many photos of Malham Tarn and surroundings, but more are always welcome Malham Tarn Pennine Way near Malham Tarn

We get everywhere, mountains, beaches, towns, paths, rivers, forests and everything in between
New end of Blakeney Point, TF9846 Former library in Leeds Bridleway gate by The Lawley, SO4896 Description given with photo: This track had reasonably good ground conditions. For context - yes it's September so you'd expect the ground to be good, but the previous week has also seen rather a lot of rain - for example on Sunday, Shrewsbury apparently had its wettest day in 50 years with over 80 mm of rain. Whilst it probably wasn't quite that high here, I expect it's still been a rather wet week. River Lune and Stanley Bridge, Kirkby Lonsdale, SD6178
