New pictures! we actually had blue skies for once so I took advantage of an early finish at work and went for a walk up town.

Image

The war memorial in the castle yard.

Image

Image

Image

three different views of the viaduct that crosses the river.

Image

A view down the river further upstream

The next two are pictuures that I took during the sunrise a couple mornings ago, only just got around to having a good look through them.

Image

Image

These last two are just a couple of randoms I just got around to looking at, the first one is at the same lakes where I took my other sunset picture, the 2nd one is at brimham rocks where you can see the weather I had to contend with :P

Image

Image




Image

Took this one at a local wildlife park, it wasn't scared of people at all, was nice enough to stand still for a photo.

Image

This was on my epic trip down to london, was a rushed photo because I was with a group of people and slightly (very) drunk so my camera hand wasn't too steady :P

Image

This was at a national park near here called Brimham rocks, its basically rock formations that are thousands of years old, this was a space between two rocks, but you couldn't see what was around the corner, it was a misty morning when I went so it was a bit spooky :P

Image

This one was actually taken in the moving car on the way back from the park so I thought it turned out quite good, it was this little lonely house sat on top of a hill, I would love to live there, the views must be amazing.

Image

This again is in London, the famous London Eye, one of my friends was scared of heights so I sat off with him and took some snaps, was the only really sunny day we had down there heh.

Image

This is just a random toadstool I came across whilst walking in the park, it felt very mystical so I got down low for a nice shot of it.

Image

This is just a statue at a stately home over looking a very large valley

Image

This is a picture from the local lakes, about 10 minutes walk from where I live, I was walking down there with my brother just catching the sunset pictures, usual orange sky stuff, we were actually walking back when we noticed the sky was turning some outstanding colours so we rushed back to our spot and managed to get some amazing pictures, will upload more of them in the future.

Image

This is just a view over the Yorkshire Dales, the trees are starting to show their autumn colours, it will look fantastic in a couple of weeks.

Because the border is the whole picture right? If you don't have anything constructive to say then please don't post. All comments are welcome, whether they are positive or negative, but I would apprieciate it if people put some thought into their replies.

I personally really, really liked the "trail to the unknown"; it looks as almost if it's a painting. Wonderful pictures.

I really like the first two, they look awesome. There are a lot of crazy views in the UK. Man it's beautiful there.

Good work Sarah, I love them.

@ Ikermit, the whole place was really mystical, its a shame the day was so overcast, really hard to get good pictures because the sky is just white, i'll see if I can salvage anymore though :)

http://images.google.co.uk/images?clien ... a=N&tab=wi thats the place it is at, I linked to the google image search because their official website was down when I looked it up just now.

Honestly, Sunset hitting water or lights reflecting on it at night looks awesome :P

I like the duck one the best, though I am fond of mushrooms in terms of their appearance so I like that one as well.

I don't really care for the borders either; look for a few different fonts and give yourself a tiny bit more spacing. I also like to put a 1px white border between the image and the black border, like so:

This one in particular has a little too much spacing, but I'm sure it could be found with a few adjustments.
Then again, it's just my opinion.

I like the borders and text, but you misspelled 'unknown' on that one :(.

Nice pictures! My favorite is the duck, for sure :D

Very nice..!

But I keep thinking with a couple of them, you could have pumped up the saturation in photoshop, for example the sky in "The Hermit" looks a little washed out, whereas a deeper blue would be nice.. The mushroom(toadstool?) one also :P :P

Other than that they're awesome, keep it up.
