Excellent Brian, that little splash of sprayed sun spikes works well. An horizon of precision A super superb landscape.

Thanks a lot, Julian. And thanks for commenting on the Flickr version, too.

Very different from what we've come to expect from you, Brian, but beautifully captured. How are you getting on with the DP1M?

 

[Pete Askew]

Radiant is the first word that springs to mind. An amazing sunset. Nice.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

A truly great delightful landscape image and as Pete says, radiant indeed. So Merlin is still alive then.

Merlin's never die, we have lots here in Cornwall dating from before, time existed, at least the tourist board keeps applying the defibrillator to such truths,

Thanks Rob. Yes, not your typical Brian Moore fotie. But I was driving home from work and the sun setting behind the buildings on my right was casting this amazing golden glow that was reflecting off the buildings on my left, so I just had to see what was going on over the sea. Hence, this picture.

I'm trying to get used to the Merrill. It's image processing is slow as treacle. (As you know.) It devours battery power like there's no tomorrow. (As you know.) Its much slower to use than any of my film cameras. Post processing is is slow as hell also.

Overall, I like it so far.

Radiant is the first word that springs to mind. An amazing sunset. Nice.

Thanks, Pete. Much appreciated.

Thank you Ivar. Yes, Merlin is alive.

Brian, what's the hurry?

Good question, Rob.

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Brian, what's the hurry?

Probably near closing time
