Just a quick snap with my old Canon 10D whilst out walking one evening. The 10D had been languishing in a cupboard totally unloved and unused for the last nine years, so I decided to take it out for a spin. I'd forgotten just how good each of those 6.3 million pixels is. This is still as good a camera as it ever was, just doesn't produce the file sizes out of the camera needed for stock. The 'golden hour' light was only there for a few minutes and I was in the just right place at just the right time. I could go back but will never get this shot again. In hindsight, I wish I'd taken my 5D MkIII. There again, on a subsequent outing at a different location a few days later I slipped and fell and dropped the 10D in the mud no less than three times within the space of a couple of hours!

Bærre Lækkert :)

I think I agree, especially the 2nd Image, very Hobbit like, lovely.

ye, i think it sounds agreeable to me as well... though, not that I'm at home in Germanic languages, but to me it also sounds a bit like German "Leckere Bären", which would translate to "delicious bears", sooo... ? :)

he he, It is a dialect expression from a rather absurd Norwegian TV series, with a very broad meaning. Beautiful, great, spot on ... and a few others.

Here's my final version of North Landing, a sheltered cove North of Flamborough Head. I'm actually standing in front of the disused lifeboat house, and the boat used to be launched down the steep slope, guided by the monorail into the sea. You can just see the bottom of it is the right of the picture.

It must have been one hell of a sight to see the lifeboat flying down this slipway into a stormy sea. The boat has now been moved to South Landing, probably because with a very low tide, like in this picture, it could not be launched.

Very nice composition. Great image. Well done Sporgon.

Edward & Click; many thanks. As often happens with landscapes the beautiful light was fleeting, which is why many of my Panoramics are hand held, as this was. The mist parted for about two minutes, allowing the sun to shine through, then it was dank and dark again.
