Lucky,
ReplyDeleteThe pictures I sent are all I phone creations. I rarely use the large cameras anymore, except for wild life photography - when the telephoto lenses are useful. They are also too cumbersome to cart around.

Well done Lucky. Like Indra, I find it too cumbersome to carry big cameras. Mine was taken with a Samsung Galaxy phone.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the error about the equipment. At least the professional competence of Indra and Speedy still stand.
ReplyDeleteLucky, I like the second photo- Sometimes when you are using a cell phone or iPad outdoors it is difficult to see what you are capturing owing to the reflection from above on the screen itself !
ReplyDeleteAre these photos meant to be black and white or am I missing something or asking a stupid question?
I stand to be corrected but I think they are colour photos. Am I right Lucky?
ReplyDeleteBlack and white or colour, I love the sea, I love sunsets, don't we all!
ReplyDeleteSo thanks for these. We would love to see more. Zita
They are colour photos.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lucky. I thought they might have been color photos owing to the very faint yellow glow in some of them. However, in my ignorance I wondered how you managed to get it virtually in daylight colors, and whether you had used a color filter ! Now I have figured out it is because your shots have been taken while the sun is still quite a bit above the horizon, and “scatter” of light occurs only as the sun gets to the horizon and after.
ReplyDeleteI shall send you some info by email if you think bloggers might be interested!
Thanks for these photos of our Galle Face and for keeping my old neurones
firing !!
