Night Photography

I went out on saturday night to practise night photography.
I took about 10 photos.
My batteries ran out.
I came home.
Not much practise was had.
But I did learn a lesson.
Needless to say all my sets of batteries are now charged.
Anyway, this was the best of the photos I took.
Shops on The Royal Mile.

Loch Ard

Last Sunday we got up early and drove up to the Trossachs. Loch Ard is a photograper's dream. The Loch has the most amazing reflective qualities. The mist was down thick over the loch when we arrived, and I was able to take some atmospheric photos. But even in the thick mist the loch still reflects. This photo looks more like a photo of a snow scene, but if you look at the fence protruding into the water you will be able to see the reflection in the water.

And what a difference an hour makes-same fence, slightly different angle:

backlit fountain in the Vatican.

We arrived at St Peter#s square early, before it was too overrun with tourists.

Rome

This is Neptune-part of a fountain in Piazza Navona. I love the colours in the background-that ochre with the blue shutters. So Roman!

captured in Rome..

I guess we all have to do this thing about having a pop of colour in a b/w photo, at least once.-and this photo seemed perfect -a street scene in Rome
