A selection of images, one from each contributor, said to have been taken on 1 January 2004. This was before Geograph was born. I have weeded out some images which were obviously not taken in January (scanning dates may have featured), and a few others which looked very unlikely to have been taken on New Year's Day, given the subject. Leaving me with 43 images, submitted between 2005 and 2015. They are sorted from (map) north to south. I have added a brief description where there was none.

This is taken looking towards Clacnaben from the top of the scaffolding on an extension in Westhill just as the sun is coming up. Unfortunately this photo doesn't do the view justice it is quite incredible at this time of day.

The deepest lake in the Lake District

Above Fylingthorpe, looking north west. This photo was taken on New Year's Day 2004. Despite the relatively low height, winter weather can be bitter on the North York Moors, and there is often snow here when the rest of the region has none.

The Ribblehead Viaduct carries the Settle–Carlisle railway across Batty Moss in the Ribble Valley, in North Yorkshire. Designed by John Sydney Crossley, it has 24 arches, rising 104 feet (32 metres) above the moor and is 400 metres long.

This picture was taken from the coast road looking towards Piel Island. Roa Island and the lifeboat station can be seen on the horizon.
