Resting On A Perch

David Brown, a prize-winning member of Gosforth Camera Club was very kind to show me the Gosforth Park Nature Reserve, UK during my recent visit. A couple of minutes on my arrival, I was greeted by this colourful bird on a perch. Once again is another image captured at the right time at the right place. This time is a colourful image of a bird of the nature reserve.

Dawn At St. Mary Lighthouse

I think thousand images of St.Mary Lighthouse, an icon of Tynemouth, UK, have been captured all these years. My first impression of this lighthouse was in 1996 when I was here to judge the NCPF International Salon. I remembered the image was shot in colour transparency. I am back again in September this year to judge the 40th NCPF International Salon. For this visit, I decided to capture the image of this icon in digital format. The soft light in the morning touched the side of the lighthouse. I love the effect of such the lighting condition. The figures in the image aptly added a scale to the lighthouse.
