    A few Mull of Galloway pictures

    Hi guys,back in sunny Whitley Bay after a stint over in our Drummore caravan. I know that a lot of you guys love fishing over there so here are a few recent shots I took on the MOG. Hope they bring back some happy memories for you all.

        Nice pics John, lovely days when I was there the other week unfortunately in bed for the sunrise and the pub for the sunset

        Hope to be over with the kids in the holidays and may try and get some of those.

          Aye its a canny hike. Its 180 miles from Whitley Bay to Drummore. It used to take us on average 3.5 hours to get there,Dumfries being the halfway mark. Now that I am retired I am never in a rush when going over and quite often we will skip the A69 in favour of the military road.

          We never do the M6,much prefer the Brampton/Longtown/Gretna Green route and just as quick.

                          Yep just got the one lens,was advised by a top photo pro not to become a "tackle tart" !!!! It has served me well. Do a bit portrait work and the odd wedding for mates so do enhance/fiddle with photos in CS4,it has its uses.

                          Having said that I come from the "old school" and all of my other stuff are not enhanced one iota,I think its cheating !!!!! oh dear was that the lid off a can of worms :-)

                          Anyway photography is like fishing in many ways,loads of blanks but eventually it pays off !

                          This is still one of my favourite local sunrises that i managed to capture,it even made the BBC weather slot. Anyone know where I took it from ?



                          I could have made it really stunning in Photoshop but that is like stuffing lead into a fish for the weigh in LOL
