Hi Steve, Unusually for me I did actually plan this one. The country park is a regular haunt when I'm out walking the dog and I had seen the movement in the water at that place before. So I waited till a day after some strong winds and rain ( could have been any day in the past 2 weeks to be...

Hi Simon, I like them all, But I love Steetley pier, the ripples gives the sand a great textured look and also the nice clean lines of the steps in the last one leading you into the image Iain

Thank you Steve ! Iain

Lol, thanks for your comments, there was much humming and hawing over whorl, swirl or whirl Thanks again Iain

Thanks for your kind comments Mark Iain

DSC_4049-Edit-Edit by Flynndog on Talk Photography Taken at Calderglen Country park in East Kilbride, 20 sec exposure. Love how the leaves in the river help highlight the movement in the water Thanks for looking Iain

Hi Jason, Love the soft tones in #1, the dog in #4 gives a bit of scale which works well and really like the angle in #5. Just my opinion, but I would have increased the DOF in #2 and had some of the pier itself in focus while keeping the grain sharp in the foreground timber Iain

Hi James, thanks for your reply, I should have taken another image at the time focusing on the background- then tried to merge them in PP. Lesson learned I have tried with a brush but couldn't get the effect I was looking for. I'll try again and use it as a opportunity to improve my processing...

Excellent set of images ! Number 3 is my favourite, love the rippling effect in the clouds

The colours are superb ! The second one edges it for me. I like the higher viewpoint and extra detail visible in the huts/kiosks Iain

I'm trying to edit the above image in lightroom 6. I've taken my usual heavy handed approach to editing but I'm struggling with the mountains covered in snow. If possible I would like to enhance them- make them standout more from the background sky. I've tried adjustment brushes, the grad and...
