Welcome! Back in January I was new to digital, and have since learned a heck of a lot from this site . The natives are extremely friendly and helpful, so just post away on any questions.

Just such an inspirational landscape up there. I'm already plotting how to get back!

An amazing part of the world and great images. I like #3... which gives a sense of the open space.

Kinbrace, eh . Do you recognise this??? Taken from by the cemetery. Spent a happy couple of hours in the vicinity in June, snapping away. Would love to see some more of yours

#9 for me is spoiled by the "colour popping" on the flag. Other wise a cool shot!
Quite... I should have posted the straight B&W version, but cheese overcame me

Great set, #1 and particularly #5 for me. Have you tried a crop somewhere just over the top of the water butt?
You mean like this??

Thanks Barrie - I think that's better. I was a bit stuck in the law-of-thirds thing, but cropping closer to the butt improves the emphasis

Many thanks Kris

And yes, the Chrysler shot is from the Empire State Building. Terrific views from there at night...

+1. I am absolutely not a city guy, but really enjoyed New York.
