Wow. That pic with the Mt. in it is great. Well done.

Thanks guys. :)

xoB: I wish. Because the road goes along the surface of the water, there's a long low unobstructed view to the mountain. It's a perfect shot. I take pictures of it all the time. It's on my 2 o'clock heading east, which is fine in the morning. I can shoot through the windshield or the passenger window. Irritatingly, the mountain hides directly beind the A pillar of the windshield when the driver's seat is in the most comfortable position. Oh well. But that also means it's on my 8 o'clock heading home, like during this shot. I knew it would be glorious, the first picture (and the dozen I took before the bridge) were ample warning. But once on the bridge there is no stopping, and it ends in a tunnel, with no real easy exit to come back around for this view, at least I don't know of one. If I knew of one (and I'm certain they exist), I'd probably have to leave an hour earlier to get my pictures in.

mercy: Thanks! It is an icon of the region, in an area blessed with an embarrassment of riches of natural beauty. Did you know that this area is the only place in the whole country where you can stand in one spot and see three different National Parks? A show like this makes me humble and grateful to witness such majesty.

Okay.
Because someone has to represent those of us with a point and shoot and who live on a housing estate.

Elmhurst, Aylesbury as the sun sets:

Nice, SG. Don't dis my camera tho. Point and shoot brings home a *lot* of pictures.

Here are a couple more from last night.

I don't really think it's the camera BigV, that's just my excuse.

This evening, snow an'all!

Wow V and Limey. I love those shots. Good job. And thanks.

Just saw V's pic with the stack of lenticular clouds. Jaw dropping.

That's not a stack of lenticular clouds - that's a close encounter of the second kind.

I want to be there RFN!

Sunsets are one of my favorites times to shoot. I love the twilight especially the wonderful deep purple and blue tones, like Maxfield Parrish pictures. That color is so hard to catch to. I have had some lucky moments with the orange range. The bright orange shot was done out side my allergists' which is on top of a hill. I came out at the right moment. Shots like that are why i carry my camera alwAttachment 21874

I took this sunset pic a few years ago (w/a $90 point & shoot Fuji FinePix 4mp (that I own)). Everyone's pix are really nice.
