I second that emotion. Fabulous colours in the sky, cjefferz. Must have been hard getting those pictures without fireworks spoiling them

OK, my three entries - all from November 4. A little experiment with my small Canon G6 set on the ground below the rocket tube with the full moon in the bottom of the frame, then set to self timer while I scarpered! I can report that the camera is recovering well, if a little singed round the gills.

As I mentioned on the Guy Fawkes thread in the photography area, that is my brother in law lighting the fuse. The match acted like a mini-flashgun to freeze him in the frame while the long exposure caught the fuse starting to fizz.

:lol: Gawsh, thanks.

Never tried that before and I was very pleasantly surprised by the results, especially as I wasn't using a tripod and just balanced the camera on the ground. I love your firework pics on the Guy Fawkes thread, and the self portrait(s) of you is amazing.

My final one for this month...if I take any more good ones, I'll fiddle the date and enter them some other time.

[shuggee]

Or you could wait until the end of the month and declare your best three for entry.

[Osbourne One-Nil]

I don't know Shuggee....I always think that once I've entered, I've made a commitment.

Heres my two entries.

Skiddaw, near Keswick in the Lake District.

Ulswater, Lake District.

[Heavywater]

Wow.

The one from Keswick is really nice

[desperately seeking]

OK - explanation time. Yesterday I posted a picture of a squirrel that looked OK to me from where I was sitting. Then I looked at it from my work monitor and it looked way over exposed. It turns out that my home monitor is beginning to show its age and isn't as bright as it used to be (happens to all of us eventually). I have therefore deleted that post and am reposting the same image before I over-exposed it in post processing. I hope this is OK..

[Sharkbait]

I was hoping to get a few more shots this month but my camera's packed up and is now if for repair so here are a couple of snaps from earlier this month, the calm foggy weather kinda seems out of place now.
