    I think PN's is better.
    I saw mine and saw instantly how I could make it better... next time. But the one on your link is appalling :)

    I just picked up 3 random pebbles... and took the shot in a hurry as I was walking and snapping.... in time I can find 3 better pebbles ... and not miss the bottom left corner out either :)

    It even looks like nice weather so you must be an excellent photographer or have left uk pn!
    While grey clouds threatened rain a lot of the day, it didn't rain between 9.30am and about 5-6pm. That snap was taken about 10.30am, while the grey clouds were still about... it got proper hot a bit later on!

    That's definitely a UK beach :)

    In photography more can = less. Besides, PN's is in focus.
    The issue I have is that "everybody with a camera thinks they're a photographer and their stuff's the best picture they've ever seen!!"

    In my opinion, I can take some OK snaps sometimes :)

    I'm certainly no photographer though.

    We are all photographers, just as we are all artists, writers, mathematicians etc.

    With the digital camera we have the ability to shoot more, so a higher possibility of getting at least some of them right.

    However, like the pictures on House Network, more doesn't always mean better, so many of us may be guilty of sloppiness.

    I know I am. :o

    I think it's harder for oldies to press the 'delete' button, but I'm working on it. :)

    I hope lostinrates' builders turned up on time this morning, seeing as no-one elses seem to be!

    Had mummy coffee this morning, now I'm bleaching my hoover. Saturday's cancelled sports day at 2pm, just need to organise what's for tea and walk the dog. Better do that now and get the wellies on before I get comfy again.

    My first day off in ages where I actually feel like it's a day off. :) My house might get cleaned, maybe.
