St Andrews Castle Ruins.

Giving such dedicated comment deserves a compliment May. What you Scally? Greetings, Bart.

Agree heartily with everything you say May except the HDR, which I know nothing about, I don,t think the shot has been properly exposed, maybe slightly under. How anyone can pick a winner from the 1,000s of snaps I,m asked to vote for beats,me most are fair to average,and quite a few out of this World, I just vote for all of them. I never pushed this snap, but it was being pushed, I think mostly because of my age, and my lovely personality LOL. Bart wants me to compliment you for your very detailed comment, I will ask him to send you some of his Fine Belgian Chocolate, though I doubt if it will be up to the standard of the Swiss. I will hunt out and post a photo to assist you should you ever decide to visit Glasgow. The photos of the Dome were taken by Alan Knox. regards scally.

Hi Bert I do think May is due something for her Travails, but she is TT so Whisky won,t work! maybe you could send her some of the chocolate that your Country is bursting with? cheers scally.
