Nice Photos.

Posted by: u5227470736789439 on 27 February 2008

Most of us have taken one or two nice photos.

Here is my candidate as being almost quite good. In fact it is two painstakingly joined.



Taken up in the mountain at Skurdalsvatn in 2000.

Though this one takien in Warsaw in November 2006 is not bad:



I know there are several good photgraphers here, and it would be nice to see some of you best efforts if you feel inclined to share!

This link was on kenrockwell.com. In no way do I endorse the Daily Mail. However this was quite interesting:

Saturated Orchid

You're being very creative this week Jamie. Lovely vivid colours. I have a few more pictures from my trip to Jerez but they will look washed out next to the orchid. Nice pic.

Thanks Steve.

 

Yes it's been so wet outside for so long, the shutterbug within has had to be content with indoor photography in the main.

 

My daughter and I were playing about with some old flashgun coloured diffusers and just holding them up in front of the lens. We got some interesting effects. The orchid pic was saturated to the max!

 

I think on balance I would rather be in Spain though..!

Actually Jamie there was nearly as much rain in Spain as over here. Last Saturday about 4 inches of rain fell flooding the golf course and the bunkers were turned into ponds. It was the worst weather we've had on holiday there. I didn't take half as many photos as I usually do. Never mind, it was still a break and to see those storks flying was amazing.

The Herdwick sheep up here in the Lake District seem to produce rather a lot of black offspring :-

I found this fabulous photo of The East Bay Dragons of Oakland California on the internet.

 

 

From the days when a black man riding a Harley chopper was pushing the boundaries of social 'acceptability'.

 

Go for it guys. Love it.

 

It'll open larger in a new tab/window.

That round your gaff is it John..?

 

She's made herself right at home it seems. Mind, your system seems to have downsized somewhat to accomodate her, but like, who cares..?

Good music taste John, Ziggy Stardust. But I don't like the way she's handling that LP. I wouldn't put up with that no matter how foxy she is.

Skywards...

I think I was around the other side. I had just come out of the pub and it had stopped raining so took a quick one.

Interesting facets to the building. It has been fun watching it grow over our infrequent visits.

I wish I'd started photographing it as soon as it began to be built Howard - it has gone up with lightning speed.

 

Here's another view - oddly enough it looks like a face...
