WOW love the 1st pic.Very nice

I need to get up to there for some piccies hmmmmm

Those are great! I was up there in late April, 2004 and the weather was leaving a lot to be desired. I took a thousand or so pics in the week I was up there. I think the best are from Glen More Park up in the Highlands. I should probably look into tweeking them as it were. I have a few others but they are few and far between. Maybe they will look better after tweeking. Idunno.

Hi John,
That first pano from Fairlie Moor is stunning, I like it a lot.
The third, of Arran at sunset, I also like.
Would the sunset shot be from Portencross.

i know exacttly how you feel friend the sky in these shots is not the norm for scotland in winter for sure
i was just very lucky on this outing

Just did, John.
Some great shots there.
You've managed to get some great light in the Eglinton Castle shots.
The meerkats are always a joy, so laid back.

It was awesome, up there I had a great time; it just was not conducive to taking pics. I am in total agreement there on the not the norm. That was also the case in East Anglia, England where I lived for 3 years. I'm back on US turf now.

Love the first one John, well done


Paul

they are very beautiful shots John

the view taken from fairley moor overlooking the clyde towards arran and cumbrae is especially beautiful

terrific views all over

nice! i recognised the place straight away! i live in Saltcoats myself. I've taken a few pics with my old Fuji S5000 but they're too noisy and too Fuji to post here lol. One is of a sunset and the other a panorama from the viewpoint overlooking largs.

Nice pics and it's always good to see familiar places, especially so close!

Glad i visit this site, i don't know why as i have a D70 but i love the quality of the shots on here, some talented photographers.

Welcome to the forum "Hofajoab".

D70 or no, your welcome here.

Any Nik*nian abuse is purely in jest.

...............yeh right.

#1 is a great pano. But where are the trees? Looks like you could walk in the wide open country forever.
