I don't know. For me, the dullness of the sky is a part of the atmosphere of the shot. I spent many a weekend with my dad going walking in Kielder growing up and this reminds me of that. Good memories from a good picture.
Got a tip for us?

Beautiful. I wonder why it's called red bellied. Saw a beautiful great spotted woodpecker last week. Without a camera though....
I wondered this too. I imagined the first person to classify it didn't know the difference between a head and a belly

Rat Patrol
Caught our two barn cats coming in from their latest Rat / Mouse patrol. They are very good at their job.

Thanks mate. With good lighting, even an amerture like me can get a nice shot once in a while.

Thanks very much for the kind support.
FYI...I imagine that this guy is called a "Red Bellied" because there is another species of woodpecker with a completely red head (top to bottom with no white on the head at all) that is known as a "Red Headed Woodpecker" - wish I had a shot to put up to show the difference. The "Red Bellied" actually does have a bit of red colouring on his belly that isn't clearly seen.
Took a trip to Stowe House today with Mrs MacRy for her birthday. It was nice to get out with the camera for a change.
Very nice MacRy and best wishes to Mrs. MacRy on her birthday. I hope it was an outstanding occasion.

It was at the local botanical gardens' Christmas light display. Essentially it was several lengths of RGB LED rope light that were coming out of a fountain. Very cool to see in action.
I thought it was a set of thin bangles against some Christmas lights!! Love this fire photo, it really brings out the vision of heat.

My girlfriend and I recently took road trip to Hollywood, and parked our big truck right on Hollywood Blvd.

Shot this in a marketplace in Cambodia. I like the fact that it looks like a model catwalk despite it being a busy, sweaty market.
Nice colours and compositition.

That's a fabulous shot mate! Nicely done.

Mine for today.
The X100T has awesome low light capabilities. It was basically pitch black in the little cave I took this in with just a little bit of light coming down from an opening above the statue.
