Number four is a cracker. Number two is well and truly overcooked.

Re: Today in pictures

Thanks Gremlin, not an awful lot done to No. 2 other than add a graduated filter to the sky to bring out the clouds a little which I have to do to most pics.
I did forget to correct the white balance though , is this any better?

I don't mind post production stuff.
You can see it has been done and it is just expressing a bit of artistic licence.
I like them all... but as Russell says number four is a cracker.

Russell loved your pics of Portmeirion.
It brought back some very happy memories of taking Ma down there...and going there with a work colleague.
We laughed a lot and Ma brought back the ugliest plant I have ever seen....a Gunnera(I hope I have spelled that right).
We nursed the thing all the way back from Wales...we were like the Clampetts on Tour!

Re: Today in pictures

The conditions weren`t great for the sky, I try to get as close to realistic as possible (most of the time) but when the sun lights up the clouds like it does my camera needs a little help. Even bracketing didn`t work that well, so they are what they are, just a bit of fun for me while excercising the dogs.
4 pics here are the attempt at bracketing, skies still not great even on the photo exposed for the sky.
(no sliders were harmed in the making of these pics)

I think it is good to have a 'play' with your pictures.
It doubles the fun.

Re: Today in pictures

Seems I took a wrong turn and ended up at Darwen Tower not Peel Monument

Re: Today in pictures

Rotten quality but I thought it was a lucky shot of the kite with a cloud behind.
Looks like a vapour trail.

Re: Today in pictures

I will admit the image of the cloud behind the kite wasn't planned.
It was a gusty day and the kite was whizzing everywhere and I was trying to track it with the camera. I had one or two very crisp shorts but that was just a lucky one which I didnt know I'd got until later, pity it's not as sharp as the others.

Re: Today in pictures

Russell, you are really hard on yourself.
The image is what it is and the capture is imaginative.
I imagination is a valuable attribute for someone who takes pictures.
I love the shot.

Thanks, the actual picture is deceptive, the other side was missing due to slugs eating it.

Dave, that is what is called 'A queen Anne front and a Mary Ann behind'.
Something said of an article that looks good from only one angle.

Behinds never look very special...and I should know because I have seem my fair share
