I think the clouds look fine myself, i also think a nice blue sky with a couple of billowy clouds would have looked good, but you take what your given

My own thoughts as well. The pics I am sorting out from Algarve most there is not a cloud in sight. Even missed sunsets and sunrises because not clouds to add interest. Last two days were good though.

I need to come to your images late more often, I like the chatter. This is a nice shot Normie, even tho it seems a dull day.

Lightfoot11 In reply to AlicesPlace [2007-09-30 20:30:28 +0000 UTC]

The cloud was over the sea, on land it was fairly clear and warm.

Well you know by now, I am also up for a chat and flippant remarks.

Thanks for the nice comment on the shot.

Hi Dave. Saved this one till today, knowing your interest in Lighthouses.

Off to sunny Portugal, Algarve. Hired a Villa with pool for a week, just to chill out and take photos. Each of season treat.

Cool shot, is it far from the shore?

Lightfoot11 In reply to Belldandy1 [2007-09-22 07:30:08 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. Not really, when the tide is out you can walk over to it. It's about 1/4 mile from the shore.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Belldandy1 In reply to Lightfoot11 [2007-09-22 08:33:35 +0000 UTC]

So that is actually a road leading down? Hopefully the tide doesn't come in real fast

Lightfoot11 In reply to Belldandy1 [2007-09-22 09:16:11 +0000 UTC]

The tide is quite fast and a klaxton is sounded to get anyone daft enough to still be on the walkway. They have lost a number of people as there is a plaque to those who have perished.

Common sense is all it take. Some people think you can beat nature. It is a wonderful place and well worth the visit.

That must be the stables...(for the race horse of the same name - "Corbiere").



Nice shot - it's perhaps a good stock shot?

Hope you have a fab time Normie. Don't forget bongs.

Thanks Andy, Now that you mention it. the name that is, you are probably right.

I wanted to put something up and this has a certain appeal.

He is ready and waiting.

You enjoy yourself as well today. Remember, position, smile, snap. It's that simple.

Journal being subitted, now. A comment would be good.

Morning Dan, yes tomorrow we are off.

Change of plan though. Not the Azores now but the Algarve.. The time scale was not good so had to change our plans. Ah Oh.

So you have a great week and we we be back on air on the 1st Oct.
