I'm a day late getting The Photo of the Week up this time. Been a busy weekend and just didn't have time to get it done. I decided to use a subject that I have posted before on the Facebook page, but not on here. This is also a different angle than before. This is Eileen Donan Castle, one of the first we visited in Scotland. Eileen Donan is a 20th century rebuild of an older castle, but it is still one of the most photographed castle in Britain. We stopped there on three occasions, but I still couldn't get it with mist on the loch, oh well.

Photo of the Week #22
This photograph was made back in 2009 but I have only recently processed it. Gros Morne National Park is a popular destination in Newfoundland and has some of the most beautiful landscape I have seen in Canada.
Photo of the Week #21
This photograph was made as "station night" for my photo club. This evening is set up as a hands on fun evening, with several different photographic ideas to play around with. This is a bunch of candy under a sheet of glass. The drops on the glass are glycerin. The glycerin holds it's form better than water and lasts a long time. Sometimes indoor shooting can be interesting. If I were doing this for myself, I would take care to get the glass perfectly clean first, but you get the idea.
Photo of the Week #20
Human forms in landscape images is a topic often debated. Some people think it isn't pure landscape if there are people in it and will sit forever waiting for people to clear their field of view. For the most part, I agree and I have cloned out my share of people, but other times I think it works very well. This person walking across the top of the rocks gives a sense of scale that would otherwise not be there.
