North East trip - Photo Heavy

[Wayland]

I didn't realise you were so local Andy.

If I'm up that way again I'll drop you a line.

Superb pics as always Gary.... the Lindisfarne ones especially, very moving.

 

[Wayland]

Lindisfarne Castle is one of those places you look at and think, "That'll make a great photo."

Unfortunately, before this last trip I never seems to actually get it.

It just goes to show that sometimes you need to keep going back until conditions are right.

Bamburgh Castle is just the same, this one taken last year is the best I've got so far because I always tend to go in the middle of the day when the light is in the wrong place.

I think this is because there are such good locations nearby that I tend to favour at dawn instead.

Having such a crop of good shots from Lindisfarne this time, I think I must give Bamburgh more of a chance the next time I'm in the area.

Great selection as usual Wayland; thanks for posting. Thanks for explaining the swooshy water that frequently feature in your photos. Living in the NE the locations are familiar but you've managed to show them in a new light.

That's a cracker Gary

Swooshy water.....I like that description.

The problem is that there are certain iconic locations that are well known to landscape photographers and we often end up in each others tripod holes.

I hope that by visiting often and trying to find new shots, I can get something slightly different as time goes on.

Hi,
they are fantastic pictures, difficult to choose which is the best, they are the sort of pictures I would consider buying, well done mate!!

 

[covertcraft]

amazing pics sir. thanks for sharing them.

 

[wolfshead]

just a thought..... Have you ever looked in to turning any of these into prints, maybe A3 or bigger? I have'nt a clue about the cost involved, but if the quality of these are anything to go by you've probably got a ready made market for them on this site, and I for one would definitely be interested

Nice one Gary, Number 7 for me. Brilliant pics.

 

[Wayland]

Thank you all again.

I do toy with the idea of selling prints from time to time but it's the logistics that give me pause.

I may look into it again.

Gary those pics are fab.
I took some photies on roughly the same walk a while ago and show how not to take photos brilliantly.

Stopping briefly at the Snook on the way off the island I headed up to the Borders for a new location I had not visited before.

Superb pics Wayland.

Dare I ask, what photo equipment you used, as I'm thinking of giving photography a go. Mainly nature, but with a few landscapes thrown in.

It's really good to see these places in such a new light, as most are relatively on my doorstep.
