You have a clarity slider? I need to buy one of them!

Ah ok... just Googled - you are a Lightroom peep.

Clarity slider indeed. Sounds far too easy.

'Tis in Adobe Camera RAW as well if you fancy increasing some clarity

Think I like this shot best ^ has a calm, contented sort of feel

Off-centre composition is nice, as is the lightening of the tones towards the horizon

Liking that 5D2 then?

Lovely Martin, but I do find the catch light in the right eye a tad distracting.

Did you clone out the dog lead and what was on the end of it?

Peeing dogs are all the rage you know ...

Took a spin up through Applecross and Carterville this afternoon after our week up on Skye, and had to stop and shoot that obligatory red roof

Also, I just uploaded a timelapse of the sunset we had the pleasure of witnessing over the Cuillins on Wednesday evening (shot with my Sony DSC-R1).

I took this at North Gare near Hartlepool, I wanted to show the contrast between the natural beauty of the white sand and dunes of the nature reserve and the stark industrial skyline of Teesmouth and the Seal Sands complex.

I used a 2 stop soft grad and a Big Stopper to slow the exposure down to 15 seconds to get some movement in the reeds and smooth out the sea.

I hope it works. (and doesn't sound too hippyish!)

At least you haven't given up Mike.
(Nice bugs on the Macro thread.)

Rubbish weather eh? You're still on Skye I presume.

I'm driving to Uig this morning en route to Harris. Look out for a white Evoque and a hot dog.

Thanks, I think I agree. When I put it on my Instagram, I think the caption I wrote was "Watching the world go by" and you can definitely see a bit more of the world in the wide shot! We all need a bit of calm once in a while

Awesome, I love timelapses. It's what made me get a camera in the first place!

We kept our eyes peeled yesterday while shooting around the Loch, just arrived back in Glasgow yesterday evening before our drive South tomorrow.

Enjoy Harris, hopefully the weather will continue to hold out, climbing the Quiraing on Wednesday and then the Old Man of Storr on Thursday in the scorchio weather has left me looking like I've been in the carribean for a fortnight

One from the drive up to the Mallaig ferry last Monday, with Ben Nevis looming behind Loch Eil to the west of Fort William...
