    More superb night-time shots Raven.

    What lens did you use for the ones in post 19? I took one recently from the pretty much the same spot as the second one, but only got a fraction of the scene you captured.

    That certainly was a braw, bricht moonlicht nicht, Raven!

    There's something so magical about a scene bathed in moonlight, and you have captured that magic so well in all three photos. The glow of the electric lights and the reflections make for an intriguing contrast!

    Cheers peeps for your ever so kind comments... as USUAL!

    @astroman, those were shot with the Canon 5D and the 24-105L. I should have taken my wideangle, but I only grabbed the cam and tripod

    How you getting on with this lens Raven? After my impending 70-200L f2.8 IS purchase (hoping January sales may save a few ££'s!!), I'll be targetting either the f2.8 24-70L or the 24-105L. Optical quality is the main criteria though I like the sound of the extra reach on the 105L.

    I find it very versatile and quite sharp. When you dont need that little bit of extra light, than this is a superb lens... I find me using this one more and more...

    Great shots everyone. Love the light and clouds in your first shot Raven near the bridge. Fabulous. (did you get the bus this time?)

    These are fab! I like yer first one MPH - I keep goin back to it - something about it reminds me of an old film or something - the light. Gorgeous! Thanks for gettin cold so we could see it!
    BTW you are all so lucky wi yer lovely moonlit night - too many clouds here for that!

    Well done again, Raven and MPH! I am enjoying this thread so much!

    Raven, is the first photo in post 29 looking over towards Springpark and Mount Pleasant, with Thurso Bridge on the right?
