View Full Version : Dunnet Beach
OK, there appears to be lots of photographers taking pics in this wonderful area. So why not post your's here. Any takers?
For starters here's some of mine taken on Sunday (25 January 2009).

Cracking pictures Deemac... really like the first.
I`ll have a wee look through the last one`s I took there to see if there`s any worth posting. :)
Great stuff Deemac, I like both number 1`s... :)

Thanks Deemac,have this B&W version of the steps,not really sure about b&w.
Never sure if i've gone too black or too washed out,what to highlight etc. A bit more practice needed.

Fabulous photos of Dunnet Beach, you fab photographers! Kudos to you all for your wonderful results, and keep them coming, please! :D
@eddiston, your shillouettes are stunning!
@tjc, your first one is suberb, you can be proud of that! :)

MPH, probably being a little cheeky but here is my take on your excellent steps image converted to B&W. I'm sure Raven would do a better job.

I have to admit Dunnet is one of my favourites, and I can often be found there, a great place to unwind.
Deemac - an excellent collection, the tractor is my favourite.
dragonfly - A nice series, not only a great place for photo's but I suspect even better for the dogs.
MPH - Some nice textures and shapes, just shows you don't need good weather to get interesting photos there.
eddiston - Very nice, number three particularly grabs my eye.
tjc - the first photo is a real stunner.

Some shots from an afternoon walk, in need of an unwind, and a mental restocking of toys for the pram, so only a compact in my pocket and the wrong footwear, took me about 10 minutes to fill both shoes with water!

What's he hoping to plough for - sea-d potatos? Sand-wich fillers? Harvest of the sea??:confused
I was told he was cleaning the plough in prerparation for a ploughing match. (using the beach like giant sandpaper I suppose!!) First time I'd seen this practice.

Thanks for your comments folks. It is my daughter and her pony in the two pics. The pics that caught my eye are both of TJC's and MPH's B&W conversion.
Another Dunnet Beach.

3 and 4 for me but all good.
Deemac
I`ve never seen the tractor actually doing it before but have come across the marks and thought... :eek: makes more sense now.
eddiston
2 and 3 are real crackers... love the surfer and the silhouetted horse.
nirofo
Lovely shot.
Here`s another form me... :)
Out for a stroll

Cheers nirofo. :)
What a great thread of photos.
Loved the dyke shot Demac.
I had a pic here but removed it as I noticed a couple of "snags" with it.
I`ll see if I can improve it and post it back . :)
