Great stuff, Stephen. The last one I really like.

VERY NICE! I particularly like the first and last ones. When the first photo popped onto the screen I saw it as a cave about 6 feet across- then I saw the human figure (which makes the photo IMO). The last one make beautiful use of just a little color.

Great pictures! The old boats' photo is my favourite, although the new ship is lovely too. I guess it is for both that they really are at odds with the enviroment.

Is that last photo upside down?

Some great shots, BTW

@Peter - Yes I agree.  If it wasn't for the Chinstrap penguin in front, I probably would not have chosen it for processing.

@Chairman Bill - Yes the photo is upside down.  Just one little thing I do just to get the viewer to take a second look.

Thanks for the positive encouragement (as we all know this can be a time consuming hobby)

Amazing - lovely images.

I love the first one with the sense of size due the person in the shot.

Martin, it's a penguin…  :D  and it's still a very nice image!
