    North-east England

    Hi everyone

    I'm a new member here, so this is the first time I've posted any images.

    A few weeks back I stayed in Seahouses in Northumberland. Here are some shots taken from the immediate area. (The castle that features in a number of the pictures is Bamburgh Castle.)

    Beautiful shots. I especially like #8.
    I bet those boaters are glad for that sea wall.
    Keep Shooting!

    Re: North-east England

    Great images and welcome. I really like the one with the gull in it, although I would be tempted to clone out the contrail.

    I have been here a while now and find it a very friendly place to hang out. Someone always has an answer for my questions and I learn from reading responses to other's questions.

    Cheers,

    WesternGuy

    Thank you for the kind comments and warm welcome. I hope to post more here in the future as it looks like a great board.

    Re: North-east England

    Welcome to the site, from another Brit. If you are ever down south lets us know and perhaps you can join one of our get togethers.

    You've got some interesting photos but there are too many to really to comment on sensibly. If your looking for crtique but 1 at a time in the Critique forum.

    I really like #8. I think its #8.

    Re: North-east England

    Thanks, Roger... this IS the 'whittled down' list. ;) There were many more!

    Seriously, point taken. I like #8 also but the bottom right hand corner bothers me a little (something obstructing the view a bit). I like the colours reflecting in the puddles and the composition of that one, though.

    I'm not actually based in the north-east, but I am 'up north'. I'm on the other side of the country, in beautiful Cumbria.

    As with the others, #8 stands out from the others. The colors and composition are very eye-catching. I also like the last shot, just not as well as #8.

    Hi and welcome! Number 8 was the one that jumped out at me as well. Quite a day out on the water!

    I take it then that we'll be getting some beautiful Cumbrian pics soon. Lucky you, I haven't been up that way for a while.

    Yes, I have one or two to share from Cumbria. This one is possibly my favourite.

    Re: North-east England

    By the week, going back to the north-east shots, on another forum someone said they pics lacked impact a little. I think he's probably right, so I had a play and this is what I came up with. ;)
