My Hackles were already up
Seriously though , I was more worried about you being offended by the accusation you were in Scotland, you know we would adopt you any day
You're prepared to adopt?? Is that England as a whole, or just me? I come highly recommended: I'm house-trained and require only a short walk each day.
When your pic started to scroll down, it looked kinda dull. Then it all came together... and wow! There's barely any light, but it hangs together so beautifully as an image. If the tourism people are looking for an iconic pic that 'says' 'wild Scotland', then they need look no further. Terrific...

Ooh, don't confuse the Lake District with Scotland. The Scots are prickly about such matters (and much else
Yeah, especially because of the info in Doylem's "Location" I feel really stupid right now
sorry everyone

No problem... I only know where Italy is 'cos it's such a distinctive shape (oh, and 'cos I been there). But I honestly couldn't place all the new Balkan countries in a map of Europe...
Maybe organise a MacRumors golf outing? Some good public courses there.
Just the whole of the Lake District! Or maybe have the golf outing at the wonderful Silloth GC.
Right, here was the plan: get down low on the floor, take some pictures looking up at the baby.
The result: No! Leave my lens alone!
Ah, Silloth, the resort that time forgot...
I remember going into the Tourist Information Centre in Silloth to see if I could buy a book on the Cumbria Coastal Way. The lady behind the counter looked at me as if I was mad. "You don't need a book", she said, witheringly, "make sure the sea's on your right, and just keep walking". True enough, but I think she'd missed the meeting about customer care...

Some how my posts have to follow the venerable Doylem....a hard act to follow. Can't blame a guy for trying.

Sweet exposure! I'm impressed.
It feels very serene there.
There was a lot of action in Cocoa Beach this weekend, with the pros competing against a few lucky selected amateurs.
In the practice area, this grom was making his own mark.

I was inspired by your shot to try some indoor photo's of stuff in my house, especially as the weather is so rubbish here! Found this little fella as a test subject:
Yeah, dark when I go to work and dark when I return! As a result, I've been taking portraits of the kids. I think I've done all I can now without getting some backgrounds and lighting, my built-in camera flash is now really starting to bug me.
valdore: your HDR technique is out of this world! i could never get my shots to look anywhere close to that. do you mind sharing tips to a newbie?
here's mine for today: the mural above the Foucault Pendulum at the Griffith Observatory.

I was going to say we'd just adopt you as a test case in the beginning, but Fuzzy14's idea of annexing the whole of the Lake District is super ! It's too hilly to be in England anyway
Glad you liked the shot as well, love the forest one you posted, gorgeous colours.
Oblomow Yip very near to Prestwick !
... the street furniture gets quite opulent as one wanders hither and thither. just sayin'...
Another outstanding shot! I'm not ordinarily a fan of HDR, but photos like these last two of yours show that the technique has great potential in the right hands.
I like the way your HDR shots make Vegas look appropriately shabby. Even if it's a little more polished in real life, your technique captures the essence (I spent a half year living and working there about 10 years back)
Experimentation with colour
the "call and response" composition of this shot is terrific.
Anther shot that looks kinda dull as it's scrolling down from the top... then the light on the grass - and fallen leaves - just pull it all together. Another lovely shot, Steamie. Someone's planted the trees in regimented lines, yet each tree has its own individual character. And I like the emptiness: no people...
