Thanks Stuey, it is favourite of mine, different every time I've been in the last ten years and that'll be quite a few hot dinners, I reckon!

The person behind the camera also has a big part to play, Photographer/ Lens/Camera. This tri-fecta is perfect, terrifc imagery.

Many thanks Karlo and Russ!
Holding the camera steady was the toughie on this occasion but I suppose it shows you can always get something at least, amazingly we stayed pretty dry.

A wonderful set of shots, Jules. I really like all the very different layers in the third image - have you been studying "Rhein II"? (I prefer yours - and I would guess that it might be more affordable!)

Erm no! You mean this?

It went for £2,000,000! EEK

Glad you liked the shots though...

Many thanks! We are blesssed on the Solway coast with a benevolant microclimate which often produces lovely skies and with distant clouds over the scottish hills for a bit of interest, lucky too, in that I have the Lake district on the other doorstep.

Really like these Russ, nice early morning light, which alas I seldom catch in the lakes, as the first bus to there doesn't leave town until 9A.M.

Found this Artist type at Drumburgh, wish I could have managed to get a better representation of what he was painting in the background but I really didn't want to tee him off as he was concentrating!

Maybe it actually works better as you look at the painting to see his view of the landscape rather than get the same as everyone else when they stand there.

Or maybe I am just over thinking things

I could care less what Canon and Nikon do...

Thought you given up on all that

You could be right Mike, I was just trying to give a representative view of what he was painting, without shoving the 16-50 down his lug!
As for the Canon/Nikon thing, I'm genuinely sick of being asked which I use. "Nikon or Canon then?" "It must be Canon coz you just can't get colours like that with anything else!" Does my head in to be honest...

Came across this unfortunate on yesterdays bike ride.
As I approached Port Carlisle on the Solway Coast, I noticed two Herons pre-occupied with something, of course they flew off before I could get a long lens out but this was what they were fighting over! Poor blighter never stood a chance, one Heron is a helluva predator but two...
Anyway just a snap, it was in the mud and I couldn't really get closer, and I just don't do macro...
