The is the same as the Newhaven Harbour shot but without the gallery border. This may be more suitable for framed prints.
The shipping forecast had it spot on – “Malin/Hebrides, South Westerly Severe Gale force 9 increasing Storm force 10, occasionally Violent Storm force 11”. / A good day to leave the boat in the marina and go exploring by land! Easdale is a particularly exposed piece of coast on the west of Scotland, where the sea has an uninterrupted run from Nova Scotia. To give you an idea of scale, the rocks in the foreground are a metre in diameter, they aren’t pebbles. Coincidentally, this ‘beach’ is where my wife and I had our first open water scuba dives .. fortunately the sea was a little calmer then!
Watching the sea pile in to Easdale’s normally sheltered harbour reminded me of the song oft sung by the Vital Spark’s crew: Oh! The Crinan Canal for me, / I don’t like the wild raging sea, / It would be too terrific to cross the Pacific, / Or sail to Japan or Fiji. / A life on the Spanish Main, / I think it would drive me insane, / The big foaming breakers would give me the shakers, / The Crinan Canal for me. For the curious, the harbour entrance is between the rocks in the foreground, and the little rock right of centre .. not the rocks with the breaking wave!
Taken at Rottrest Island – Western Australia. This pelican was airing his wings standing on a post like the one in the image. Was lucky enough to be in position after almost running 200m to reach the spot where his enormous span could be seen. On cue he took off and this is the result.

Lt. General Wade’s Bridge at Aberfeldy in the Breadalbane region of Highland Perthshire (Breadalbane means “Highland Scotland” in Gaelic). Shot taken on Saturday 20th December 08 in the middle of our winter. Designed by William Adam, Scotland’s best architect. The total cost was £3,596 or, in today’s terms, over £1m. ”... a freestone bridge over the Tay, of five arches, nearly 400ft. in length, the middle arch 60 feet wide, the starlings of oak and the piers and landbreasts founded on piles shod with iron….” (House of Commons Journal, 7th February 1734). The bridge was first opened to traffic at the end of October 1733. Wade regarded it the greatest of his considerable achievements in road-making. In 9 years he had personally supervised the construction of over 250 miles of military roads in the Highlands – the first engineered roads in Britain since Roman times. lt is now the only one of Wade’s 35 major bridges to remain in use as a public highway. Built for 18th century wheeled carriages, it survives to the 21st century as a great memorial to a great roadbuilding engineer. Wade’s Bridge is a Category A listed structure of historic importance (HB Number 20861) under the care of Historic Scotland. The River Tay, Scotland longest river, meanders across Scotland from Loch Tay before flowing out to sea at the Firth of Tay.

Nelson’s Monument on the crest of Calton Hill in Edinburgh, Scotland, replaced an existing mast with a signal-tower high enough to be visible to ships on the Firth of Forth and commemorates Admiral Lord Nelson’s death at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. it is shaped like a spy glass, and from the top (unlike Nelson himself, who saw no ships) you can see the ships on the River. The stone structure is 106 ft high with 143 steps from a base 456 ft above sea level. The really smart aspect of this tower is the time signal installed at its top in 1852 to enable ships’ captains to set their chronometers accurately. A large time-ball drops on weekdays, at 12pm in Winter and 1pm in Summer coinciding with the firing of Edinburgh Castle’s One o’Clock Gun. Information supplied by Wikipedia.

The Moray Firth. Taken from Lossiemouth, Moray, Scotland. I’ve never really been a fan of HDR images. Most of them seem unreal to me. In saying that I have been playing with Photomatrix Pro for a while. Anyway, earlier this evening I was again inspired to revisit HDR after viewing this image by James Coard. What you see is a 4 shot HDR generated via Photomatrix. It was then tweaked in Nikon Capture NX2 and Photoshop. Many thanks for the inspiration James.
