Three Gulls and a Lighthouse

[ST-EOS]

Took a trip to the mouth of the River Tees today. It was blowing a bit and very cold. As you will see there was quite a swell going on and the wind was extremely cold.

WDYT of this one

I think it looks bl**dy windy and cold, apart from that great shot of the two posted I prefer the crop on the small thumbnail version, IMHO you don't need the stones in the foreground

It makes me shiver just looking at it, I agree, the cropped versionlooks better to me.

Sorry Muscat I was having problems uploading I wanted more than the thumbnail which; I thought I had deleted! and then when I did manage to upload I had posted the wrong version. I've just tried again and seem only able to upload a thumbnail!
Ah but.... when you click on the thumbnail it enlarges, well I've learnt something today

Great action Shot Peter, I perhaps agree with Ian about the rocks in the Foreground, but still a shot I would be very proud of!!

Great action in the waves. A photo to be proud of.

Re: Three Gulls and a Lighthouse

Cropped version much better, great shot, one that shows off "spring" at it's best...

Thanks Colin the sea was certainly putting on a show

I was getting a bit bored Alun with all the water splashing over the lighthouse so thought a gull or two would break the boredom

It makes me shiver just looking at it, I agree, the cropped versionlooks better to me.

It was cold Ian but once I got sat down out of the wind it was bearable, just

Re: Three Gulls and a Lighthouse

Thank you all for your individual comments, I've got my "Numpty" hat on and don't seem to be able to multiquote your resoponses over the two pages, I did manage three though. I must try harder as my headmaster your write on my report or should that be retort

Here is one more just to whet the appetite so to speak. This time I'm going to try uploading via Photo whastit dont hold your breath though.



I'm glad you didn't hold your breath as uploading from Photobucket I got a message saying it was too large! So this is a copy and paste from there anyway.
WDYT of this version, hopefully I got the verticals right for Robin (HHCanon)
