Pat...both sets on this page are great. My favorites would be 2 & 4 from the first set and #1 from the second set.

Can't believe it's been over a month since I posted. I love your recent shots, Pat, super colours and compositions.

Last weekend offered a rare good weather forecast, so I headed for the mountains. It didn't stay completely dry all day but that was a good thing because I was able to grab this shot of a rainbow.

The scale of the Cairngorm mountains doesn't really come across here. Some of these peaks are over 4000 feet (1200m) high.

These granite outcrops are known as the Barns of Bynack.

Impressive landscapes Andy.
Beautiful light Pat.
I like your "new" landscape lens Rick, don't have to worry about converging lines. Have you thought about architectual work with the 500?

Actually the answer is yes to that Steve. I have used it for that purpose at work.

Jonathan:

Thank you so much, but the area is so easy to get a good shot and the light that morning was great. All had to do is point and shot (with the addition of a couple of filters).

I love the U.P.. I went to school up there, but could not afford to enjoy it at the time. So I am trying to make up for that.

I'm having a play at panoramas now to at 6 images merged at 35mm instead of Rick's standard 500mm.

Thanks for viewing.

Very nice Steve. Whats the story on the boats? Rentals? A way to get out to the sail boats?

[conropl]

Steve - Nice subject for a pano. I like it.

Thanks guys, the little boats are there all the time and are used to get to the big boats in some cases and to float around in the sheltered waters of this bay. They would all be floating in about 3 hours after this shot was taken.
