Random Photos : Part 4

[noell35]

Kind words, I've not been to Leeds for years (went to Hudds uni and had a girlfriend in Leeds) so your photos have had the reciprocal effect!
It must be cold there, it's even turned the phone box blue

Went in search of the mad March Hare today, but they just sat there.

Whilst house hunting on the north coast of Sutherland we stay at a friends part of Strathy Point Lighthouse. We were up there last week and these photos were taken over the space of around fifteen minutes.

Cant help but feel that damn plane line has ruined the shot a bit on the last one!

Regardless of the plane vapour trail (that Rob expertly removed), both are really excellent captures - love them both and can't decide which one is better - the shorter exposure with the redder colours or the longer one with the blurred clouds. Both are great.

Thanks for the kind words, and for Rob to show me what can be done apparently so easily!
From this and the bridge shots I put up, time to learn photoshop and revisit my old photographs!

I'm sure Rob won't mind me saying that removing that vapour trail is basic rather than expert PS stuff. As he has already said, 2 seconds work (once the program and image had loaded, of course, unless he has a really quick computer )

Yep no real effort at all. Lasso area, shift f5, done.

Managed to actually take a photo tonight ..

Well spotted! The gharial was in the National Chambal Sanctuary in Northern India.

It almost (almost) made up for us failing to spot any tigers at Ranthambore a few days earlier.

That's a shame. Had a similar failure on safari - the only rhino we saw in over a week was a small spot through a 300mm lens and barely any bigger through the guides binocs! All the good sightings are great, but it's the 'misses' you remember as much...
