Nice again Rob. I like the crop best although the highlights could do with a tiny boost I think as some of the movement implied / visible in the first seems to have been lost.

 

[Brian Moore]

Rob,...thou art producing some very fine images with thy new machine! Well done laddie!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, gents.

Pete, I had already selectively boosted the treble a wee bit in the second (a different image, not a crop) but held back from going further as it was becoming obvious. But, looking again, I think I could get away with it.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Nice...you're having fun again, eh.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Fun?! Standing in the wind and rain, freezing cold, just to get the shot? Yup: Great fun! In fact, truth be told, I walk a lot these days, and just felt in the mood to plan a long walking holiday, maybe a couple of hundred miles, making it a photography trip too. Will give it some thought. Likely to be on my own though!

 

[Pete Askew]

So, you'll be taking the RB then!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

As if!

 

[Brian Moore]

Go north, young man!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

maybe...

 

[Pete Askew]

Or South.

 

[Pete Askew]

Mind I've heard West is nice too.

 

[Pete Askew]

And others swear by East.

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Superb Rob like these.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Easier to stay put, Pete...I'm getting dizzy already!

Thanks, Julian.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Very nice - super moody B&W

I'm scared of too much black in my images - you're inspirational Rob

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Chris. Too much? Impossible!

 

[Beth Carter]

[Rob MacKillop]

Ha. Good one, Beth.
