Castle In The Clouds

Very happy you liked it Steve, thank you!

Hi, and thanks for the compliment, the title seemed appropriate for the scene. BTW, did you see my photo of dumping the slag near Sudbury, taken back in the 60’s? Called “Valley of Fire” here on RB. I used to do a lot of work at the radar station at Falconbridge. Glad to meet you.

Hi Chuck, and thank you, must be a new group I hadn’t caught up with! I’d be honoured to post it there.

Just got home and found my Castle had been featured! Chuck, it’s an honour, and so very much appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you so much. It has received more reviews and comments than any of my shots so I’m quite happy that I stopped and got very cold for awhile..LOL

Thanks very much and I’m so happy you liked it.

Very glad you liked it, and thank you!

Really? I just got home awhile ago and must have missed the member part. You know, the Castle was my very first post, and so far has had 133 views and 33 comments, way out in front. It was a cold day in Banff, but worth it :)

Thank you Lori, your comment is much appreciated.

Thank you Dee, I’m very happy you liked it.

Thanks Pauline for the kind comment and the fav. Very much appreciated.

Thank you. It’s a lovely mountain to photograph because it stands relatively alone, but on a stormy day all you can do is be patient and wait for the moment that you hope will arrive. Even then, the wind,sun and clouds combine to create very fleeting moments :)

Thank you Barbara, for both comments. I’m glad you enjoyed it. It’s received more comments than any other that I’ve posted, which is a constant nice surprise too!

Thanks Shiraz, your comment is very much appreciated.

Thank you, and I’m very glad you liked it.

Thanks so much Sharon. I didn’t know I had the Feature until this moment. Just turned the PC on and saw your comment. What a lovely surprise!

Thanks Anne. I’ve always seen it in summer, and it has a whole new majesty in a winter stormy day.BTW, I’m also a Maritimer, with one son on each coast. I come home every year and hope to be back again this summer or fall.

Thanks Liza, the lighting was changing almost by the second as the wind kept moving the clouds. This was my very first post on RB and I’m very glad you like it.

Thanks Anthony, and your comments are very much appreciated.

Thanks very much Cheri, It was the very first image I posted to RB and glad to have it featured in your Group. Much appreciated!

Thanks very much Stephen, your critique is very much appreciated, and thanks also for the fav.

Thanks very much, greatly appreciated. This was the first image I posted on RB the day I joined! I’m very pleased it did so well in the Landscape Challenge. Thanks also for favouring it :)

Thank you so much, I greatly appreciate your comment.

Thanks very much John, glad you liked it.

Thanks Stan, much appreciated. Always have a soft spot for this pic, it was the first one I posted when I joined RB, and it’s still the most viewed. Sometimes it pays to stand in the snow and get really cold LOL

Thanks, very much appreciated! It was cold, wet,windy..but worth every second!

Thank you Kristiane, glad you liked it. Many years ago my Father was an engineer on ships which sailed from Canada to Narvik and then down to Argentina. This was from about 1925 to 1938. I think that Narvik was one of the first places I knew about outside Canada. Nice to meet you!

Thank you so much David, I greatly appreciate your comments.

Thank you Jesper, and glad you liked it.

Many thanks Philip, never thought I would make the Home Page, it was a huge surprise, and a real coincidence to be on world environment day. This was the first image I posted on the day I joined RB!

Many thanks Vickie, a total surprise to me when I turned the PC on this morning! Never thought I’d make it :)

Many thanks Lou, greatly appreciate your comment.

Thank you Kevin. It was well worth being very cold and shivering while I waited for the right moment. I’d do it again..!

Thank you Elizabeth, I certainly appreciate your kind comments. Glad you liked it.

Thanks OB, couldn’t believe my eyes when I turned the PC on this morning!

Many thanks Anne, very happy you liked it.

Thank you Ray, very much appreciated.

Hi Stephen..well I was quite astonished to say the least! I always thought it would be really nice to get on the Home Page but never expected to make it. Couldn’t quite believe it!!Thanks so much for your comments, really appreciated.

Hi Bev..Today was my morning to be dumbfounded..lol! And thanks so much for your very kind comments. This was the first picture I posted on RB the day I joined and I’m so delighted to get the honour. And to think if the wind hadn’t shifted at the right moment I would have missed the shot..lol! Sometimes things just manage to work out!

Many thanks Joanne, your comments are very much appreciated, and I’m glad you liked it.

Hi Evita, happy to see you again. Many thanks for your kind comments. Getting on the Home Page was a great surprise to me!

Hi Estes, many thanks my friend, I certainly appreciate your comments. Can’t tell you what a surprise it was! That was the first image I posted on RB on the day I joined. It was worth almost freezing my hands..lol!

Thanks so much Kylie, very much appreciated.

Many thanks and appreciate your comment!

Thanks very much Luigi, very happy you liked the image.

Hi Peter, many thanks for your kind comments. Much appreciated!

Thanks Vickie, it was a total surprise.I very seldom look at the Home Page and if it hadn’t been for folks like you telling me about it, I probably would have missed it. Though come to think of it, one message was from RB so I guess not. Anyway, I never expected to get on it. Knowing what’s in your portfolio, we both know you’ll be there too, so I hope you get a really big surprise the same way I did. It does feel quite great but also humbling, when you think of the quantity and quality of the competition. BTW, I finally got my partner Jann Ashworth started on RB, and we’re hoping to get to the Rockies in the next week or two. She’s only did a few postings so far but lots more to come.

Sounds great! Haven’t been in Yukon since 1955..! Have a wonderful trip and safe return.

Many thanks, lizalady. It was the first posting I ever made,the day I joined, and it’s been very popular. I’m happy yo see it get first place, never had one of those before..:)

Hi Sheila, and I’m delighted to have my favourite mountain Featured..thanks ever so much,greatly appreciated!

Hi Barbara, and many thanks for the kind comments. I’d love to see your scenery around the Isle of Skye. I’m originally from Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia (Novelle Ecosse!)which was settled by Scottish folks back in the 1700’s. Much the same kind of scenery :)

Hello Gregory, and thanks very much! Your kind comments are much appreciated. It was sure cold on the hands but well worth the discomfort..lol!

Thanks Virginia..glad you liked it!

Thanks very much Barbara, glad you liked it.

Hi Vickie, many thanks. It was nice to share with friends Riggzy,Larry and Martin, as well as meeting new artists.

Hi Larry, and many thanks for the kind words. That image was my very first posting on RB, Nov.11 last year. It was a cold wait but the sun finally gave me a very short break! I was partially kidding you about January,(lol) but the rainy stuff usually tapers off in March or early April and everything is in full bloom by then. But, you’re right, who can predict the weather? Be glad to see you whenever you get here!

Many thanks..your kind comment is really appreciated!

Hi again Sharon, and thank you.. this was my first posting on RB a year ago and it’s been very well received. Your compliment is much appreciated :)

Hi Ellen, thanks for dropping in..and thanks for your kind words. I’m glad you liked this one :)

Many thanks Robert, and very much appreciated.
