Didn't stray far from Aber this weekend. Dylan and I just wandered around looking at stuff. More shots of the seafront I'm afraid.
Some pretty mixed weather - lots of cloud rolling around Cardigan Bay.
Not sure why these chaps were fishing off the jetty - can't imagine they had much luck.
Despite living here for 9 years, I've never wandered up to the monument that dominates the skyline here. Until yesterday.
We were pretty much the only ones in the bandstand for this welsh folk group.
This fella was a fine fiddler. |

Very nice set, surprising what you can find just looking around!

Love that sky in #3. Works well with the white of the pier.

Nice series Liquid
#2 is very well composed, great variation of lines in the frame to lead your eye around
#3 excellent tones and fantastic detail

#1 (awesome sky), #3(ditto) and the rather strange monument in #4 are my picks.
Hard to tell which are mono & which colour...

Some really interesting compositions in that set and consequently some very striking photos, especially #2, #3 and #5. It's that kind of thing I'm trying to train my 'eye' to.
Personally though I really like the one of the fiddler. Interesting subject, nice portrait and luvverly bit o' B&W.

All up to your usual standard Scott,
I would favour the fiddler as the best of the bunch, but that hairstyle has to go

Not much to add to the deserved praise from the others, my favourite is the fiddler.

Lovely stuff Scott - no.1 is a real cracker. That's definitely Barry on the fiddle - the second shot confirms it
