Dramatic point of view and composition.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Thanks John!
I haven't used my K1 for a while - somewhat heavier than my other camera! But was good to use it for a few of the photos I took whilst away!

Smashing picture… echo Giulio’s comment!
I used to live in Caithness, and Mainland Orkney was a ferry hop, so know the Ring well….
should have stayed for a sunset shot….
Yours truly,
Imatwit!
