Re: scottish borders today
Nice image, however cloud in upper left corner distracts me somehow. Maybe clone it out? Also you have one dust spot to clone out 
Re: scottish borders today

These colors are amazing! I'd have to be careful in a place like that, I'd come away with all of my memory cards full. You made excellent use of it, too.

Re: scottish borders today
Nice photo and nice landscape. Were you out walking or driving in a car? Looks pretty cold.

Fight fair bakubo.
Nice image gio67. Every image that I have taken can be improved. I prefer to imagine myself standing where you were standing. For me, the cloud is OK but I certainly understand why you would tweak it.
I really want to go back to Scotland.

Re: scottish borders today
I've been wanting to get there ever since I was a kid! Maybe it's my love of bagpipes, or maybe it's just that I want to go somewhere the men are so sure of their masculinity that they can where skirts!jbtaylor wrote: I really want to go back to Scotland.
I should have gone when I was single, it's too expensive now. Maybe I can pick up a client over there...........

Re: scottish borders today
your right there jb, wise words indeed, one of the things that struck me when i seen the view was there was not a straight line in view, all undulating and bends.jbtaylor wrote: Nice image gio67.

and dusty, this is the best time ever for you to visit, the exchange rate has never been as much in your favour, your hard earned will go on and on and on

Re: scottish borders today
That's the problem right now, earning money. I'm between major clients (I'm a consultant) and the little bit I do for a handful of small clients barely lets me scrape by. My job is always feast or famine!gio67 wrote: and dusty, this is the best time ever for you to visit, the exchange rate has never been as much in your favour, your hard earned will go on and on and on
