Nice stuff, gubbs.

I really like how the water disappears off the edge in this one. Does the B&W look a lot better than the color?

And this is a wonderful, clean, elegant portrait. Nice composition.

This an intriguing building. It must be difficult to isolate it from the other buildings in the area.

I very much like this one; the light on her face while the shadows are in front of her. The two others balancing her out and the lines on the ground..it just all looks cool.

TBH Sid I was struggling with the strong light on the side of her face, B&W was an easy way out although I liked the colour. More work required :deal

Mrs Gubbs complains I never take any nice pictures of her, but I was pleased with this one.

Its huge but there's a lot of space around it, there is church just out of shot on the right, I don't think the whale blends in very well :dunno

Thanks for the comments :thumb

I'm with Sid and Simome...this b/w portrait is gorgeous, just beautiful...I very much like this one; the light on her face while the shadows are in front of her. The two others balancing her out and the lines on the ground..it just all looks cool.
