found another one! Y*! man it would have been sweet to roll along the country side over there in the day, it's to bad that it couldn't have lasted a little longer.

Hi Dr Lamont! Hope your well, I have a appointment to visit to your gallery 2morrow! Ta for the YS! This was part of the Schull to Skibereen tramway, the the locals dubbed it the Sick & Sore tramway because of it's ailing service, back in the day, eventually expiring for good in 1947! It's great area Don, even without the tram!

Hi H you have a great black and white gallery. Jim, Axota has suggested it to me, and really I like it. Black an white pictures, in my opinion, give more strength to the image.

Cheers.

Hi El pare de la Clara, I am delighted you like the gallery.

Jim's a good friend & a essential cog of our Pano community!!!! I really appreciate his suggestion & your time taken to visit.

I love mood & atmosphere in pics, BW really defines the emotion of photographs. I suppose because we don't normally view the world this way, it's a thrill from a different perspective in tone & contrast. Free from the shackles of colour you can be more adventurious where often colour doesn't survive well.

Ironically at the moment i am taking a little break on the B\W & trying to see can how i bring the mood from Bw in colour. I think colour is so so more difficult to work with!

Thanks for dropping by!

Warmest regards from Dublin h
