The scary fact is, my wife and kids only recognise me when I hold the camera to my face!
But I do love taking photos.

I like the use of colors in the photo with the chains. Really nice, congrats

Love the second one very, very much. Just as kNox said, colors are beautiful, just as texture of the chain.

Good shots, Simon, but I disagree with the other two comments above. The realistic colours of the 3rd photo are preferable, the 2nd looking too unnatural for me - too much colour saturation and a magenta cast - but I do realise that might have been your aim. The compositions are very good, although it would have been even better to see the fisherman's reflection in the pool of water. Just different opinions, of course.

Back to the seaside in Buckie, Moray, Scotland. A lovely little fishing community.

Nice shots, looking forward to seeing more.

These photos keep getting better and better. Love them!
I was near the seaside over here a couple of weeks ago and I almost froze to death - how's the weather there?

The Pub off to the left do really good 'Bar snacks' and even full meals, and stock a good range of real ales, or they did when we were there. In this one, see the spots of rain falling into the harbours water.

Btw, I like the whole collection (including the hanging one) and those from the second post especially very much

Hi there, Phil.
Well done for levelling the last one before all the water flowed out of the harbour. Nice shots here, Phil, but one puzzling aspect. The grey clouds in your Buckie photos are mostly shades of grey. So any idea why (what appear to be) dull skies in the Portsoy shots have a sort of lavender/blue cast (it's there in the RGB values), when all the colours in the harbour and buildings look correct?

Maybe it's the Hollande (aise) sauce on the side? All I've done is a bit of adjustment to contrast and levels followed by some sharpening. So nothing particularly adventurous. Regards. Phil.

Hi there Di,
Thank you for your very kind and generous comments. Philip (MrB) is very adept and accurate, and has helped me to (in the main) establish a more critical approach to obtaining a 'level headed' look at horizons. He's something of a cross between a spirit-level and a serious colour analysing piece of software. Best regards. Phil.

Hi Di,
You were posting to me! I was just pointing out the help that MrB (Philip) has been to me. It can get a little confusing as there is on the one hand Philip who is MrB, then there is me Phil (PhilJ). I hope that clears up the confusion Thank you Di for the kind comments you made. It's always nice to be the recipient of positive feedback and kind comments. cheers. Phil.

Thank you, Di and Phil.
Even when there is no name clash, things can get quite confusing when people reply with a post containing quotes or multiple quotes from a previous post, sometimes even when a quote is not really needed in their post. Perhaps it would help if people were more selective when posting quotes - deleting most of the quoted post or posts, simply to leave quoted the part of the quoted post or posts that is relevant to their new post. Now that should make things clearer - No? Philip

That's the way to go Philip. Clear as mud mate!!
Happy days Cheers. Phil.
