Seabirds at Thurso Harbour

[Deemac]

Out with the camera (again) looking for something to try the new neutral density filters (4 & 8).

Anyway, came across this great group of chaps. (and quickly forgot about the filters!!)

Excellent photos. They gave me a good laugh. Somehow, every component of the photos seemed to be just right - and funny.:lol:

I am going to have to have a go at B&W someday. Isn't it a step backward though?
:cool:

haha, not very cooperative them models, eh? In the first pic I would shop the rusty ladder out...

Go Raven, go raven, go raven! Slap him for insulting B & W !

Deemac,

Like the B&W, the first photograph is excellent, but I would agree with Raven about the rusty ladder.

psyberyeti,

Black and White is one of the joys of photography, but as you will find out, much more of a challenge than colour, learning to see in black and white is a interesting challange!
Enjoy.

My uncle will not look at anything in B&W now that we have colour.:lol::lol:

[grumpyhippo]

I remember when everything was black and white.
I'm sure that coloured anything was not invented till the mid sixties:lol::lol:, although if you very very posh you could afford extra shades of gray!!

Fantastic pics!
