One from last weekend's fog in Windsor Great Park. A more thorough catching up beginning now. Way behind, as is typically the way at the moment, and I missed some people last week. Apologies if that was you! Hopefully it won't be for long!

Incoming (Landing Craft Light Trail), Göcek
One from back in September in Turkey. Hundreds of shots sat on my HDD and I thought I should get some shared while I have a moment.
Göcek is nicely set up for long exposure enthusiasts. This one and the two (previously posted) shots below were all taken from posts, walls or boardwalks - improvised tripods waiting for you everywhere. I really like the way the antennae have come out, even if the blur from the rocking boat has blurred the text strangely.
Have a great weekend all!
Goatzilla (West Caucasian Tur), Tallinn
Tallinn Zoo has the biggest collection of mountain goats and sheep in the world. This is a West Caucasian Tur, rather than a goat. They're pretty big beasts, as you can see. It's a neat display, in that the beasts get rocky hillocks to roam about.
The light and distance wasn't quite right to go for an f/22 all in one job, so, whilst nothing has been added or moved, this version did rely on CS5 to get both in focus. I've just upgraded from PS 7.0 - the selection along the gravel line took a couple of seconds, compared to maybe half an hour in the old version. Very neat software.

Falling Literally (Autumn Leaves & Stream), Hertfordshire
Well, I'm back after a fortnight's hiatus, lots of work and a short break. This is a quick one as so many of my recent postings are to prove that I'm not dead - just pedaling faster than I'm currently geared for.
Hope everyone is well - sporadic catch ups through this week and hopefully another couple of weeks of more consistent activity to come.
For this shot - yes; I did drop the leaves myself. They're real leaves though, and real gravity pulling them down.

Sea Sick, Göcek
Taken from the boardwalk working as an improvised tripod. Not sure there is quite enough "stable", but the crazy effect of the light on the boat's glass frontage was so cool I thought I would post it anyway.
Catching up now!

Two's Company (Stray Dogs Sleeping), Dalaman
Two stray dogs sleeping in Dalaman's central square, sheltered only by the circle flare. Got some strange looks kneeling with the camera on the floor taking these.
Hope everyone is well - catching up now, after a busy week.
