Go Forth - Multiplied!

[Rob MacKillop]

Not sure why it is called the Forth river...but here are multiple shots from Kinghorn and Pettycur on Saturday. All DP1M.

1. From the train station above the harbour...

2. The odd oil rig here and there...

3. Twilight...Incholm Island on the left, Edinburgh on the right. There is a 12th-century music manuscript from the monks on the island (some of their buildings remain). The words are in Latin, pleading to God to save them from the nasty English people who keep sailing up the Forth to steal their food. Nothing ever changes! LOL

4. The water was scary in some areas...

Some real nice light going on - No3 does it for me with the silvery sea. Mono would work too I think!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Dave. I did try mono, but preferred the subtle colours seen here. Glad you like it, though.

 

[Tom Dunne]

Some incredible skies Rob. Love the green weed in the foreground of the last; a welcome extra colour.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Tom. It was a grand day out.

 

[Pete Askew]

Super set. Numbers 2 and 5 for me though. Love the line from rock to stone to rig. And the almost over-bearing sky in No 5. Nice.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Pete. That little rock was a gift, perfectly in line.

I must say I fell in love with the area, and would be happy to live there. But with a population of about 200, I don't think I could earn a living from teaching guitar...sadly.

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Nice images to look at there Rob. Definitely captured this time of year well, on what appears to be along walk if that is the same oil rig as earlier from the station.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Actually a different rig, Julian - there are a few lying around. Not that there is oil there, they come in for repairs. Amazing to see them slowly moving with tugs.

I did walk about five miles, though.

 

[Brian Moore]

I agree with Tom about #6, and I find #5 to be lovely. But all are very good, Rob!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Brian. Appreciated.

 

[Nick Lukey]

Great set Rob love number one, a picture frame

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Nick. I thought I was back home, watching TV...
