down by the harbour (2 large shots .one small )

[marie]

there is a long long pier jutting out to the sea in dun laoghaire harbour
( which is outside the city of dublin) and yesterday there was construction work being done to the path leading to a lighthouse at the end of the pier.

new massive pipes were being laid underground to bring electricy to the lighthouse , among other things

in this shot where the lighthouse is perched looks a little like the titanic's last 'stand'

but the photograper standing there is safe enough and on level ground.

and these girls were strolling along the pier .
I loved the look of the hat on the girl on the right

when she was passing she really had a gorgeous smile

Great shots Marie, So electricity to the lighthouse! guess the won't have to light the candle with a match anymore. :lol: :lol: :lol: The photo of the girls is cute. I notice that the girl on the left has the typical cell phone attached to the ear. Maybe that's what the girl is hidding under that hat. :rolleyes: :lol: :lol:

[pradeep1]

What's with the color separation and posterization on the first picture?

[Mills]

I like all 3 with 2 being my favorite Marie. Got to love cell phones!

[RockOne]

Nice pics. Like the lighthouse..and the painting effect on it.

[jgbeam]

Nice scenes, Marie. #2 is special. :cool:

I guess it's hard to take a shot of people without catching a cell phone these days. :D :D
(She's probably ordering a pizza.)

ha ha ha ha Sandy

the hat was good for a photo.

there was a strong cold breeze against a body when walking the other way

the hat's 'tail' would have been in a much different position with the wind like so
so I got lucky http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif
the breeze was on their backs

ps
I hate those phoneshttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_evil.gif

you tell me :confused:

was making a kind of painting effect.
and that's the way the cookie crumbled
(for me)

[marie]

thank you Steve.
it won't be everyone's cup of tea

that's ok too.

I love lighthouses at any time
but they sometimes can look ordinary when they are really very special

[marie]

Nice scenes, Marie. #2 is special. http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif

thank you Jim

#2 looks better as a bigger picture
but there is no in between on pbase
the large are very large and the small are too small

bad news is if I take a shot lengthways it can be very large
but lengthways is sometimes the best way regards composition when taking a particular shot




I rather some shots shown fairly large to show some detail better
( I mean the contents )

Marie; I just had a thought. I bet the girl with the hat has an extra long cell phone antenna in the tail of her hat so she can call all over the world. :lol: :lol: :lol: You should see them in this country driving down the road (very scary) speed dailing and talk in the cells non stop. In the stores same thing yak yak yak, I once saw a husband and wife in a large grocery store, she in the deli section he around the corner at the meat dept. talking to each other on there cell phones, on what the other should buy. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

my sister in law has a kettle which makes a bit of noise when boiling
( it's not a whistling kettle)http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

her son works late into the night (and later) and sleeps on in the mornings.

one morning she got a phone call in the kitchen
it was her son on his mobile from the bedroom which is down a short corridor ( it's a bungalow)

and he snapped at her ' will you switch that &*%%" kettle off ma '
