Some interesting comments there, Dawn.
As I said in my rapid post, I've been feeling a bit :shrug: lately.
I think it's because I haven't been happy with my last few 52 posts...there's a chasm between my visualised idea and my competence/camera gear.
I was, however, really happy with my rapid photograph (if I do say so myself).
I have to say, with touching 1400 posts in your 2011 52 project, you must be doing something right
Anyway, I've been in Malham all day and am a bit tired....
BUT was at Malham Tarm and I experienced my best Golden Hour...more when I post some photographs...needless to say: lost my polariser, dropped my remote in the tarn, was stood knee deep in the Tarn at 18:00 getting the sunset...amomgst other things....but it was
FANTASTIC!!!
Anyway, 'nough ramblings.....

#2, seen this before I think and you've done well. Nice trails and interesgting dish.
Cheers and......OOOHHHH, it's Saturday soon...new theme....:bonk::bonk:
