ooh yeah. That is a brilliant set! Any chance of numbering them?

I'm loving numbers 6 and 7 from the bottom.

Sixth from the bottom for getting a different take on the rocky foreground interest at Egol.....that T effect is awesome.

Seventh from the bottom for the coulours and tones firstly but I think that composition and framing is just perfect. So well balanced with loads sucking you in bottom left to top right. Loving the clarity of the water.

One minor crit is that I find the vignetting a little too much on some but they are distinctly yours as a result.

Amazing that you got all of those wall hangers from one trip.

Talented indeed

Thanks for posting

Awesome set :). Thanks for coming and thanks for the filters vs light vs colours chat :)
 
Stunning! And number 3 actually knocked my head back, I love it!
 
Awesome set and I now feel very inspired to head up them parts now myself :clap: :clap:
 
I like no#1 to errr no#29 minus the Morrisons one as the horizon looks a little slanted :) Also the one three up with the bloke running off with one of your camera's. Seriously love the one with the "t" shape in the rocks and the one directly above. Excellent job.
:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
 
Great set of images... some of them are a tad dark for me, but then again, they add something different to the images. so overall i love them.. (y)

Oh, and is it my monitor or is there a red pixel on some of the images? i.e. no.5 just beside the pipe in the centre and also further to the right.?
 
Where did you go, looks like you were somewhere on the west coast?
 
Cracking set Mike, Everyone of them is good! (y)
 
Nice one Mike! All brilliant shots, I'm well jealous!
 
Love them. Such poetry in vision.






One point, I like to see exif so that I may learn something from how the shot was constructed. I know it would be a pain in the Isle of Harris to change them now but in future could you leave the exif in?
 
OMG, I hate you all. Stunning.......:notworthy::notworthy::notworthy:

Great Shots Mike.

I think I prefer the mono though.

Especially the quirang and neist point, you've captured the gloomy,drab and menacing feeling of impending doom very well!!!

Big thankyou to all else that commented! :D:D
 
Great set, the one with the little chap on the hill is my favourite. Also the speeding lorry over the bridge.
 
Great shots mate... again like gary's def a lesson to me in what can be achieved by getting up and out there early and staying out late... all to often I end up being lazy and having to put up with daytime light which most of the time aint much use for someone who likes to shoot landscapes!

Stunning, fantastic, etc, etc.

I'd love to be able to achieve results half as good!!

:clap:
