All hand-held. I could have done with a tripod for some of them.

Beautiful abstracts, Rob! 1, 3 and 5 look like images of reeds imprinted on the walls. Very cool stuff!

Great selection Rob. The abstract nature of the three Scratches images is great and they are my favourites from a fine collection. But scratches 2 is my favourite favourite.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks. I did think of having the scratches as a separate topic, but they all belong together, taken within moments of each other. But I've been noticing these scratches all over the town, and might make a study of them.

 

[Pete Askew]

I love these sort of detailed explorations. Great set Rob and I especially like the first shot of the scratches. It has a wonderful flow to it.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Pete. Yes, I must do something with the scratches idea.

 

[Pete Askew]

You have a few others from before don't you?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Well remembered - from outside the court house...

 

[Pete Askew]

Now, are they trying to get in or out?..

 

[Rob MacKillop]

As was discussed! http://realphotographersforum.com/forum/threads/scratches.16697/

 

[Pete Askew]

Ah yes, I recall now. Definitely worth exploring further I reckon.

 

[Beth Carter]

great series rob, i esp. like the arches in the second to last.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Beth. Lots of arches in Edinburgh...
