i'm going to keep posting these until someone else posts some pictures up!

Lovely pics Luke Last Friday My self and colin went to Cape May (its about 2 hour drive from here) to see his sons Graduation for The coast guard I had heard Cape May Had beautiful beaches and I am sure they are but this is exactly how the beach looked











I'll have to go back in summer ..........

the pics taken from the devon side of the water, across the water is cornwall - to the right is plymouth

that's a cracker Luke, nice one. Great framing and colours. Is that a boat in the middle?

no its not a boat, its 4 million tons of rock - or plymouth breakwater as its known. you can't tell from the picture but its a mile long! it took 30 years to build!

edit - heres a little video about it

I posted these in another thread, so thought I might was well include them here. (Thank-you, Luke for the link to autostitch. It made the Frank Slide 'panorama' a cynch.)

Christina Lake


Frank Slide (located at Crowsnest Pass)


Kootenay Pass - I believe it's the highest stretch of road in Canada. (Apologies for the graininess; taken with the camera in my phone.)

great pictures major, i especially like christina lake - looks lovely. you ever take a boat out?

autostitch is great isn't it

I haven't been out boating there yet. (Don't own a boat.) But everytime I drive by (it's only about an hour away) I have to stop to soak up the view.

Kootenay Pass is also < 1 hr away in the opposite direction. There are two ski hills within a 30 minute drive (and another - Big White - about 2.5 hrs away).

Here's another photo of Kootenay Pass taken in the summer



And the small lake at the top



Still snow in June



And (to switch things up) the Lion's Gate Bridge in Vancouver



I was very impressed by autostitch. It was painless to use -- does all the heavy lifting for you.

that's a cracker Luke, the ship going through at adds to it - is it a warship?

yeah some sort of military boat, you get a lot of them round here, and submarines. there was a load of boat watchers out this morning to catch that one! they seemed a bit perplexed that i was there to take photos of the sun and had no interest in their war boats

Very cool...
