She must be a marvelous partner to let you faff around on her birthday to the extent of acquiring those lovely pictures (and all those that went into the bin). My vote is also for the first one.
She was playing with the camera on her phone!!

Yes I have heard of the rule of thirds, and to insinuate I do not know this rule is a bit insulting.... and for your imformation all of them are based on thirds.

Also... photogrpahy is an art form. There are those of us who stick to tried tested rules... and there are those of us who throw the rule book out the window, and play. I threw the rule book out the window donkeys years ago....

Not everyone likes the result of such playing, but I love it. Someone who can think outside the box and be different gets my vote always. I also shoot by this principle.

Ofcourse I had camera kit with me, and took these during a cracking sunset!!

Wow!

All I got during my time in Wales was rain, wind, and CLOUDS!!

I was at a dark sky site too!

Geoff..... pen the Llŷn Peninsula in to your dairy. Probably the best dark sky site, outside of Scotland.
I'd be happy with the wind and rain too! - I argue with folk that landscape photographers (i am one) are really weather photographers (im this too), but like an owners club people get precious about a title i have found. - regards the Llŷn Peninsula, its right on the edge of a night out morning back adventure for me, but I have previously looked at this area of Wales, trying to tie in a bank holiday for the a long weekend and this area of the world, i'm sure at some point it will come good.
I was happy with the wind and rain! See my post about it...

I took all my deep sky photography kit with me..... so crap weather was not what i wanted!

Thanks for your interest, folks; Lenny - I'm not sure about the blue cast either! I thought it might cast an eerie edge to the picture.
I like the blue.... it's something different

Thank you all for the kind comments

I've just realised that you've been costing me money Spad !!!

it's because of your images that I've splashed out on Super-Dooper ND stopper and one of those Reverse Grad filters, not cheap for the SW150 system

Images that make to think and/or inspire to try things out for yourself are a good thing artistically but not always financially
Stop whinging, and go out and play with them!
