Here's my effort - 1Ds Mark II up a mountain today.

Sorry, posted the wrong one... now corrected

Far out.

Hopefully that's now right - having a bit of a fight with a slightly dodgy internet connection!

Looks to be the right one. There was enough wind for him to be able to soar around near the peak, and he could take off without needing to get any speed up, hence no skiis. The bottom of the valley is brown, and you wouldn't want to be landing there with skiis on!

Nice, Cliff. Spring is obviously more sprung where you are.

 

[cliffpatte]

Thanks Patrick. Yeah it was about 18C today

Excellent take. Very Tarkovsky. The Grunewald looks like it's a sea crashing over the building.

That's too similar to an image I'd been thinking of entering, so I'll have to put my thinking cap back on again!

I like that a lot Cliff - the figure with the two dogs works really well.

nice light aardvark. You're more than welcome in the Photo room. You do realize you're in the distant theme (max width 800 pixels) rather than the PAW thread though don't you ;-)

 

[Cesare]

Not that it's not a nice distant themed shot
