Looked at these lovely shots Ken and now making arrangements with a mate from work to spend a few days up there, what more can I say, you inspired me. Bill.

I'm surprised you didn't get any comments before now with these Andrew. I'm not long back myself from 2 1/2 weeks in the same area. Weather was pretty good, people friendly, scenery great, surf ...

Two for one, lovely photo and an amusing limerick. Thank you Weegee and gc :)

B&W for me, suits the gritty nature of the image and I think the bright red stripes in the colour version distract from the nature of the shot by pulling my attention away from the emotion of the ...

Thanks Martin, I think that it has the best sky as well.

Sorry for the delay Justin. Thank you for your comments. Confirmation that they each have their positives and negatives but alright in their own ways :)

Sorry for the delay in recognising the time put into these replies which I really appreciate ( work :( ). Certainly looks like pic 1 is the favoured composition but glad to see that the others all ...

Nice shot Kevner, I like the balance, symmetry and tones in this. I also like that it looks to me like some kind of giant bug coming to git ya, or is that a sign that I'm not well in the head :)

Nice shot Simon, a soft, tranquil and relaxing mood with this, with lovely soft evening colours. I wouldn't have picked up on what hotdog said about the sails merging with the clouds but I find ...

Paul, thank you for your very positive and encouraging comments. Taking these shots was not the coldest day I had there but with the wind chill and the snow blasting against me as it did in the ...

Stretchman, Krusty and Peter, Thanks for your comments. Looks like cropped 1 is the favourite With 3 following behind which is pretty well echoed in the b&w forum.  Interesting that the comments ...

Thank you for the quick reply tarakanchik, 1 cropped below as mentioned. Interesting, I like the cloud top left of centre and wasn't too keen on the sliver of bare ground on the bottom left of ...

Looks like you heard right :) some poor persons pride and joy there :( but nicely caught by yourself Bathgate :)

Saw these two trees when enjoying Alberta and thought they made for a nice shot with the weather as it was and Chief Mountain (Montana) in the background. Varied the composition a bit and liked ...

Some nice shots here breivogel, gives me a gentle kick in the backside and encourages me to get out walking a bit more. Even if the scenery around where I am lacks a bit by comparison :)

Now that is beautiful, ethereal and emotive. Photographic art to aspire to. Makes me smile with enjoyment as I look at it :) Bill.

It's been the same for my sister and her family in southern Alberta and funny enough she's been askng the exact same question. Things do look pretty in the snow but it's always good to feel spring ...

Thanks Sabrina. I know that you know what you're doing and I'm always appreciative of c&c but I've got to admit to being unsure about shadow detail in snow scenes. On the day it was getting to be ...
