Hi David, great picture. I like the blue. It is everywhere. Like the lake is part of the sky. Godd composition with the the gap on the right side, leads the eye to the tree. The picture has a good combination of light and dark.

Greetings,

Carsten

Hi carloncho, thank you for looking, and greetings from Scotland :)

O' ye'll take the high road and I'll tak the low road, and I'll be in Scotland afore ye; But me and my true love will never meet again, On the bonnie bonnie banks o'Loch Lomond

"Traditional Scottish song written to his sweetheart after the '45 Rebellion by a young soldier awaiting execution at Carlisle for his part in the Jacobite Rising. The low road refers to his impending death while the high road is the sign of hope for which he has sacrificed his life."

I didn't know the background to that famous tune David till I googled it. No wonder your guys play sport with a passion!

Happy New Year once more David. We need all the cheer we can get in these dull days. Yep, I'm up and almost running. Just managed to understand the workings of XP now I have to start all over again. Vista is supposed to be easier...My God! what a struggle...Have you managed to get out and take any more photos or have the gales been too bad? ...A.S.

ayrshireman, on January 10, 2008, said:

Thanks Anita, glad you are getting over your problems, I deleted over 2500 photos accidentally but my son is slowly retrieving them from my hard drive thank goodness, so I haven't been out lately and been busy with other hobbies as well :)

A.SKINNER, on January 10, 2008, said:

I know how you feel. It's the feeling of horror as you lift your finger off the delete key. The last time my hard drive went down I lost 3 years work. I didn't recover from that one for a long time. What would we do with out our sons help!..A.S.

ayrshireman, on January 10, 2008, said:

Anita you are right sometimes they are a godsend and sometimes you could choke them (joking of course) He got a program called (recover my files) and it seems to do the job :)
