View from the old Jetty at Tayinloan. My husband accuses me of using a blue filter, but the image is just as the camera took it.

Pete and Bonnie, beautiful photos! We certainly have been blessed with a great week of weather.

I took a few at the beach yesterday when I visited Westport to go sledging down the dunes! Great fun and you forget how big those dunes are!

Excellent Photos "Ship" - I had no idea those Dunes were that big !!

That's a beautiful shot, Bonnie. If your other half isn't convinced tell if you had used a blue filter the red buoys would have looked black

I had no idea those dunes were so large either. The first pic certainly puts them into perspective and the second shot is a belter

Great pics BL and SCD.

I really like views of Jura, and I have never actually taken anything from Tayinloan.

Your 1st and 3rd pics have a great sky in them SCD. I have seen a view from I think Utah, which has a similar cloud pattern which they call a Buttermilk Sky.
No, I don't know why, but just maybe Bobbie in Texas does.

A Winter Sunset from north of Westport Cottage.

Pete, I was looking at this photo, Thinking to myself that I have seen this one before, I have one taken almost at the same point and looking at the snow on the hills round about the same time. This one was taken on the 5th January.

Excellent photos, Nice to see more people posting photos on the forum

Think I visited a few days before you. We are very nearly on the same spot. Another "fools seldom differ" moment. I shared one with Crowth at West Loch Tarbert

Two quite different images from the same location, and that's what makes photography so interesting.

Happy Snapping.

Yes, and they are only a couple of hundred yards from the entrance point at Westport. I think everytime I see them they get bigger! Can't believe we used to run up and down them as part of pre-season!

Great fun for the kids. Pity it is spoiled at the bottom by people starting fires and breaking bottles in and round them - doh!

Beautiful photos, all of them.

Taken on Saturday night (11th April 2010) - no Photoshop or anything used (not that I can!) but just a fluke when I accidentally clicked trying to take a sip of beer.

Malky, I took this one and when I looked at it tonight I thought to myself you really need to take the poor fella doon to Ian's for a haircut! :mrgreen:
