Gees your a hard marker Gerry :)

Spare me....I wont tell you what time I got up but I had to take a rest after the first 2 hours driving in accordance with RTA advice and packed a picnic breakfast. :)

That's a very dramatic capture Gerry! Well composed. Shame Suren's not smiling....he really should cooperate more

You know those chairs and fire that we spotted and thought it was a homeless person camping out.
Well there's 2 of them..revealed by the D700's resolving power once more. I didnt see them with my naked eye

:shock:

Ray this picture is quite tidy actually... I think it's better than the ones that you posted in the reviewes section. :wink: Love those muted tones. I think there is some added pink but it joins the party quite well.
