Well - I'm the idiot here , still can't take a decent photo.

However my words and reasoning , if it's worth anything

# 1 I LOVE it - the shafts of light are spectacular , the rocks at the front - wonderful texture there. Enjoy looking more closely and differentiating the various colours on the rocks going right to the back. I'd love to see a big version of this , just for the detail in it.

# 2 nice colours - a great sense of peace but it still makes me think 'what else ? ' I want more - but there isn't anything - it's a bit meh

# 3 WOW just look at those reflections - a real mirror image . Beautifully spotted . Such a sense of stillness

# 4 your eye is led to the top right hand corner slowly as you look at it , beautiful but ...

Summing up , as if you hadn't already guessed #s 1 & 3 for me , and my idiot mind says # 1 because though I can't get anywhere near it - it's the shot I'd love to have taken - it's stunning , it's so well observed , there's all that detail that asks you to look more closely at it .

AH - but if you have it sent to you - remember that you will not be paying for postage

Wonder if he remembers to take the cap of the other camera

Hmmm that's quite drinkeable too

My whisky stock is a bit lower than I would like .

Mind - it's not long till I fly out to Dublin - mebbe I should just wait and shop at the airport

Well done Barrie

You are far further on than the lady across the road from me - but then she did break her ankle and the blasted pins have slipped so she's still on crutches

Believe it or not - I hadn't spotted that

OH GOOD GRIEF - someone's got a sense of humour over this little mess

I'm sriously thinking of an iPad 2 [ because of the new one ] but still have some very pertinent questions about it for my use

There's a lot of head scratching going on - cos I just don't know enough to answer my own questions

Thanks for Cyril's pic Tony - he looks in fine fettle

Now to make some scampi and chips for my supper tonight - may well have a bottle of Leffe blonde with it

Hopefully they will decide the situation is perfect

Look forward to hearing the developments
