It takes a very special sunset to grab my interest. This does it.

It's a cracking picture but when it comes to training I reckon my cameras and lenses are fitter than me and can teach me more about photography than I can them.

Terrific pictures Ralf. They would make a great set of prints to hang on the wall.

Love it i-Berg. The composition is spot on and the mono-colour is superbly understated.

I'm not a bird or nature photographer - my longest lens is 200mm - and I have difficulty distinguishing between a blue footed booby and a lesser spotted bald eagle. But I enjoy seeing shots like these. That mink picture is a stunner Alan, not particularly for it's quality, but it's rarity value. Love seeing colourful shots of woodpeckers and kingfishers. And of course Beginner's goldfinches.

Good action pictures, cyclo cross, like rugby, is ideal for getting pictures of mud spattered sportsmen but I hope you kept your Pentax out of the mire. They still do cyclo cross on road bikes then? I thought they would use mountain bikes.

I don't really do bird pictures but as everyone seems to be into robins right now here's one I did earlier. Its from my early early digital days, shot on my Ist DS in the summer of 2006. The lens was FA 70-200 mm at 200mm.

The two central pictures (Still Aproaching It and Near The Top) are for me the most dramatic. The sun flare and jet trails in the mono piucture are terrific. No.2 has a strange green cast which is corrected in the following similar shot.
I hope you did this terrific climb before stuffing yourself with turkey.

I too remember North Shields Fish Quay when it was busy with big trawlers as well as these much smaller vessels. The light is lovely. No. 3 would have been better with some foregound interest such as a boat coming down the Tyne.

Thanks for the comments so far. I'm uploading another from the same shoot, this one shows just how overgrown the cemetery is and also how cold it was.
