Sorry, more from my local haunt! I revisted Blackness Castle this evening, this time with my tripod :D

And on way home, stopped and had my tea with a lovely view of the bridges!

C & C welcome :)

1:
The same compisition as last time more or less, I took others but this still works best I think. Last one from here for a while I think!

Thanks guys!

Very tasty, Gary. The foreground flash really gives an extra dimension. #3 followed by #1 are my faves

Hi Bazzer,

Glad you like, the green is vivid, and I can see the "flash" thought. It is in fact though, a very long exposure on the foreground instead of flash, 5 minutes +. The bridge and sky, a much shorter exposure. Tripod was used to allow the two exposures of the same scene to be blended.

Excellent set Gary. #3 closely followed by #1. (y)

I really like all of these Gary, particularly No 1 withn the stunning sky.

I am also really jealous of your van. Good photographer and a van like that. Life ain't fair :baby:

Hooked, its good to get a result which is impossible to see with the human eye so to speak.
