Cheers Dave! VIcki :))

Thank you Adam! Yes, nature is pretty amazing! Cheers, Vicki :))

Thanks for all your kind comments there Ms T! There is a bit of doppelganger dna floating around, aye? I think it was an XGM and then I went to an X700! Still have both of them! Have taken many photos with both of them! (shhhh, don’t tell Ralph! We are supposed to be the NIKON girls!) And I can’t see what you look like though! But hey, pertier? The camera CAN lie!! Especially when it is out of focus! People might think I am smiling but I am just trying to scare them with my teeth!! LOL right back at you, you mad bugger! :))

Thanks Matt! Yes, good timing is essential! I suppose that it was lucky that I lived up there and took photos for a living while living there! I will have to dig out more of them maybe?! Next time you will have to “go with the tides”!! Cheers, Vicki :))

All the better to eat pot roast with!! Spooky music came through just fine! Fox Mulder…. mmmmmmmm… yes please!!! LOL!

Probably a bit warmer than what it is here too! Thanks K!! Vicki :))

Brrrrr…... I wish we could send some of the rain that we have had up here down to you!!!

Wouldn’t it be snow then?!!!

I just heard on the news that the swine flu has struck in Victoria! Hope you are keeping warm!! And healthy!

I hope you don’t snort when you laugh!!! LOL! I hope I don’t snort when I laugh either! It is about 15 degrees here…. and I am cold!

Pass on the winter visit thanks! And thanks for reminding me it is only two weeks till winter is here!! Brrr…......

Thanks Melsk! Glad you like it! It is a fantastic place! Vicki :))

Thank you Gina! (did you change your name, by the way?!) Vicki :))

Thanks Darren, I used a polariser on the original shot, which accounts for the translucent blue. And with the scan, luckily enough, there wasn’t too much dust on scanner or 6×8 inch (glossy) print. I think matte prints might scan a little worse for wear than gloss, but I have always preferred matt prints. The Jughead photo scan was a matte print and it took forever to get the ‘bits’ out of it…..
Thanks for kind comment! Vicki :)

Thank you Kasia! Much appreciated! Vicki :))

Thanks Pamela, well worth it if you can get a ride in one! And don’t forget your camera!! What a bugger, aye, the view of the Swiss Alps in a chopper would have been fantastic! I hope your friend was OK…. (glad you like the photograph too!) Cheers, Vicki :))
