Coldingham Bay


Nikon D70 @ 25mm, 1 sec, f/22, ISO 200


Previous · Current · Next


I took this one at Coldingham Bay, while I was away at New Year. As I was walking down the path towards the beach I saw lots of black objects bobbing about in the sea, and thought they were seals. It turned out to be about 40 surfers! Man, they must have been cold surfing in those conditions!

Anyway, nicely wrapped up, I took pictures of the rocks that were jutting out of the water. There were actually so many of them that it was difficult to decide which ones to focus on. I ended up preferring this shot because of the nice pastel colours created by the sun which was just about to set.

I used my relatively new 3 stop grad ND for these shots, and am really (nicely) surprised at how gradual and unnoticeable the filter is.

At first I thought this shot was a little too "pretty" for my liking, but it's slowly growing on me!

I don't seem to ever leave a comment here which doesn't say "that's gorgeous!" or "that's beautiful". Damnit. Post something bad so I can criticise it :P

Stunning shot once again - I love how it's blurred but not too blurred, and the colours are wonderful.

Stunning - haven't seen such a lovely water shot in a long time. My guess is most people would have used a slower shutter, but the way you've done it really works well.

Yes it is indeed a pretty picture, but I think to myself how refreshing it would be to actaully have been there and look back on that experience. Also the colors are tremendous, nature gives us the most unexpected combination of beautiful colors.

Great shot. I love the sense of motion. Seems like it should be one of those motivational posters with something profound under the image. Cheers!

2.) Normally, most online bingo game sites offer chat rooms for their players. Get conversing with fellow players and try to find out how many cards they are playing with. You can play with just a few more bingo cards to increase your chances of winning the game.
[url=http://www.bingokisses.com]bingo online[/url] play bingo There are 75 balls in all with numbering from one to 75. Hence, the probability of any random number to come in the first draw is 1/75. There are three accepted tests for assuring randomness of the balls. These are:
o Numbers ending in 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, etc. are in equal proportions.
o High and low numbers occur in equal balances.
o Odd and even numbers occur in equal balances.
[url=http://www.bingokisses.com]bingo[/url]
If you do not know anyone who uses the gaming sites or you want some additional reinforcement your first port of call should be an online bingo community. By reading reviews by other people who use the Bingo sites, you will be able to get a feel for the different sites that exist and make a more qualified decision about which one you would like to use. The knowledge concerning different sites and what other users consider important about them is an invaluable tool for the new online Bingo player. Whether it is for fun or for money, there needs to be an element of integrity within the site and a potential for the player to win the game. The knowledge of other users concerning specific sites will tell the new online Bingo player whether the site is for real or is just masquerading in order to harvest the players email addresses in order to bombard them with spam, or worse con them out of their hard earned cash. This can all be avoided with research and trying before you buy, as mentioned earlier the best places to scope out bingo sites is by using a review site or Bingo members forum.
bingo online
Bingo is usually played in special halls where many players can play at the same time. The actual fun is the tension building up seeing other players closer and closer to the finish line. However, with the advent of the Internet, BINGO has gone online as well. There are many ways to play on the net, though the basics remain the same. You will have to complete a given pattern before anyone else in order to win. Over the net, you need not shout the computer will flash it out for you. Some online games also have chat attached to the games where you can speak with other players online and have fun right from your home, office or any other place where you can get on the net. Chatting is a great way to meet new people and pick up the tips and tricks.
