A few from a lovely Saturday night on the Scottish West Coast.

This is Dunure Castle. Famous as a place where they cooked two Monks sometime before the 17th Century. It's a picturesque spot for the coastal rocks that attracted the building of the Castle as it provides plenty of raw building materials.

Sitting in the Firth of the Clyde overlooking the view to the Isle of Arran. There was a lovely sunset on this evening and I am glad I went back and finally got to capture it in the golden glow.

Comments, criticisms, suggestions always welcome :-)

Lovely series -
Not a big fan of the flare in #2, but that's personal


cheers, Paul

Thanks very much all very kind. I tend to do too much into the sun, I agree.

#1 is a belter and I like #3 a lot too. I'm not keen on the flare in #2 and #4 looks like it needs a bit more depth of field to get the near-by pebbles in focus. The dark tones look a little bit murky to me but that might be my laptop's screen. The composition in #1 is spot on though. Hope you have that up on your wall somewhere.

Thanks very much Ian very kind of you. Not on the wall yet - but I am thinking about it for sure.

Depth of field is a little missing in that shot for sure.

Thank very much for the feedback.


With kind regards
