Very nice and quite a difference. Love the colour abstract.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Pete. At least I got something out of the Glasgow trip.

 

[Dave Young]

Third one is a cracker Rob... very surreal

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Dave. It was pretty boring before I slapped the solar filter on it.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Cool Rob...the last one is ghostly. I like it.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Glenn. Getting in early for Halloween

My favourite has to be the colour one in the middle. Just enough detail to make out some people but not too much.

Are you working on a series of fictitious album covers Rob? It is not just that quite a few of your photos have been square, they look like they could be album covers.

 

[Pete Askew]

Piper at the Gates of Dawn arranged for the banja - I'd pay good money for that Rob!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Now, there's an idea Yes, they could be LP or CD covers...might start a website devoted to it. Hmm...

 

[Pete Askew]

A sort of fake rare editions site. That would be fun!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Love #1 - you can just feel the wet

Hope you were able to keep the camera dry!

#2 looks like a thermal camera, with cold people

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Chris. I had a big umbrella

 

[Pete Askew]

Just to clarify that Chris. They are folding devices used to keep the rain off! A bit like a small tent without pegs.

You have to make allowances for these Californians Rob!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Sorry. I keep forgetting we are an international forum!

 

[Beth Carter]

cool shots. #1 is my favorite.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Beth. The guy walking by is peeling an orange, which seemed an odd thing to be doing in the pouring rain...

 

[Nathan Wright]

The second one is a perfect high-contrast water colour (however does that happen?). I love it heaps. Inspiration really kicking in this thread.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Nathan. Much appreciated.

 

[Nathan Wright]

No, thank you. I'm very keen on such a different perspective on a scene that many of us see all the time. Well done.
