What? You were in my town and didn't tell me? That's right where I used to hang out!

Oh, did you get that Fuji X20 you were thinking about? How do you like it?

[bfitzgerald]

Nope not yet waiting for a price drop! That's the F70 exr used for that shot.
I'd never buy a Fuji until the price crash, they always drop quite heavily

That's a very medieval looking ruin Barry - where is it?

Great shots everyone. I love the fish eye shot Valery. It was very eye pleasing for a fish eye
(at least for me).

A newly wed couple is being photographed (their photog was to the right of the shot out of frame
as you are looking at the photo). I got a sneaky shot. This was at Paestum. The temple of Minerva
is in the background.

I like the comparison of the fluffy clouds and the bride's dress

This is the location of the shot earlier...

Hence the Fuji was just a scouting type exercise.

I have a photo shoot there today (engagement)

Thanks Barry. It should be a dramatic back-drop for your shoot

One might think this is just a rockformation, I thought so too when I visited Lagos, Portugal in 2011. Try Google images search on the term "Algarve". Almost every image you see of beaches will be the beach on which this rock resides or images of the rock itself. It's a wonder anyone can find it, because the beach is pretty small and a bit off route. Curious things those non-landmark-but-popular-sights

Oh, and that odd little purple/white formation is the missus by the way

Mark,
Nice shots. You are a brave man to call your missus " a odd little purple formation"....
