Thank you also Will, Dan and Bill! Stephen, yes, the big stone head is still there between the sports centre and car park and would no doubt reward some close up photography, next time.

Will, yes I see, the colour does bring something into the very monotone mx.

Impressive clarity and boldness! You've shown the subjects in a focused and direct way that emphasizes the rich colours and intricate detail.

Very good night technical work! You got it at the right time for the sky, and the artificial light colours are beautiful. I like the wider version best with the extra space around.

There's some really good use of the beach surfaces and rock features, and as always you have got the light' beautifully I like the colours in the last 4 beach ones the best .... Lovely blues!

Stark contrast which makes the most of the medium. It's almost as if most of the midtones have been stripped away, leaving a hollow with the highlights and blacks to fight it out in. Strong lines and bold light' complete the stylistic package. .... It's all very effective.

My favorite is No 4.

Bold colours and in yer face lighting! It has real punch and character. Next we need to see some Crufts style jump the hoop action!

Great light' painting! The orange swirling light creates an energy within the calmness. Overall No 4 is my favorite as a straight seascape, for the depth of tones and composition.

You've put links to Flickr, which is a bit annoying I find when looking at photo threads. Much better to put the photos directly ..... Use the Image button below the text box to upload a photo directly from your computer.

In the real scene, what is the point (!) of the white pyramids ?

Good question Philip, and I couldn't find any answers …. it was built early 60's, so I can only assume they are there to attract passing Abstract Photographers with their Spotmatic's and rolls of HP4 !

Here's a few conversions to take us back to that time ….
