I did the Gross Glockner Pass road with my parents way back in 1960. I was one of my first memories of seeing snow (since I lived in the West Indies).

We we noticed that a black dot was moving on the side of the left peak...... Ive done a bit of climbing in my younger days....but not sure I would tackle that snowy peak alone.

I have done the St Bernard in the MG on a rally - that was fun, maybe I can find some images ...

novicius wrote:...am I the Only one who is using Capture NX-D ?...really..?..I think Photoshop (Ps) is popular among many because it's pretty consistent and in such universal use. To learn all the software out there, in depth is more than most people can bear. Now with Lightroom sharing Camera Raw with Ps to some extent it reinforces the compulsion that many photographers find when faced with the quite bewildering choices out there. Some time back I tried to find an alternative to Lightroom because of the CC issue, but for me there wasn't one. So along with Lr comes Ps, fortunately Adobe seem to have realised that CC is impractical for many serious and professional photographers, many of whom have vast libraries of very large image files some running to very many terabytes which is impractical to store online, not to mention the risks involve with such a venture in a commercial setting. Adobe seem to be continuing to develop the Classic version alongside the CC version. I have used NX-D It's good and probably gets more from an NEF than any other processor but I have a set routine with my images and unless there is something which isn't working well with the Lr, Ps combo, I stick with the devil I know. There is quite a reasonable choice of image editing software but nothing which matches the contribution which Lightroom brings with it. Not as far as I am concerned anyway.

It's virtually as good as as photoshop (if a bit quirky menus, which you have to get your Photoshop head round). And as no one is paying me for the results these days, I don't need the same level of precision.

One from the past 17/3/2004 high in the Swiss Alps we were filming the Railway on the dramatic Bernina Pass. This is a Nikon D1X image, what a super camera that was! Click here to comment on this image.

Sorry, the colour transp long gone with the client.Were the flashes just on the roof and fired remotely? It's very impressive the detail and lighting. If I was being critical.... I wonder if the camera would have been better a bit higher to lift the car light trails off the building and posts?

Is it worth splitting this thread at post #23 as I feel historic houses are in a quite separate category from landscapes? The UK has many beautiful and famous historic houses from stately homes to humble cottages such as Beatrix Potter's cottage Hill Top at Hawkshead to the royal palaces and the likes of Blenheim Palace. Most are worthy beautiful or spectacular places. I think these themed threads are a good way to show off our work but we need to keep on topic, else it becomes a mishmash.

Just back from Tuscany with a selection of "landscape" images. Didn't have room to carry the Nikon with me this trip so these are all phone pics, the quality is not great but I hope they convey a sense of the beauty of Scully's surroundings - the last one a view over the clouds from around 30,000 feet ....

Not bad from a mobile phone Chris. This is another high image this time with a D1X and 24-70mm AF-S a few years ago. Gormer Glacier SE of Zermatt Switzerland my recent picture shows how much this Glacier has shrunk since I first photographed it in 1960!!! Nikon DSLR with 24-70 mm AF-S lens.

I guess climate change has more or less wiped out the glacier. I can remember visiting to it as a kid in the summer of 1960 it was still very cold there.

There are some wonderful images posted here I have a few to share but will need to first find them. Too much chasing birds and native orchids. Here are a few until I find more #1 Alfred Nicholas Memorial Gardens Located in the Dandenong Ranges in Victoria Alfred Nicholas Memorial Garden is the original garden of the historic Burnham Beeches estate, renowned for its extensive water features. #2 Craig's Hut Sunrise Craig's Hut is one of the most famous High Country huts. Perched atop Clear Hills, Craig's Hut offers stunning views of the ranges and is one of the region's most photographed landmarks. #3 Stepping stones at Big Peninsula Tunnel As part of the McMahons Creek and Reefton goldfield, the Yarra River was known to have carried good gold, and from the 1850's the riverbed underwent alluvial mining and was sluiced for gold.

Melbourne by night. Just as I remember it from 2007/8. Never went during the day as I was based near Geelong.

I agree with you but the islands you can just see in the photos is to the left Ibiza and to the right side Formentera, which is beautiful. The other picture of the mountain I didnt realise also has the islands in it (to the left by the trees). I usually take these photos early in the day as the sun is rising as this is best time to see long distance. The horizon is not level!! No excuse really.

Nice set Jonathan Here are a few from Bright last Autumn. We couldn't go this year due to Covid restrictions. We have visited there a couple of times for Autumn. Bright is a town in Victoria, Australia. It's a base for exploring the peaks of Mount Buffalo National Park and Alpine National Park as well as Mount Hotham, a popular ski resort. The region is also known for wineries and fall foliage. Bright is a starting point for the Murray to Mountains Rail Trail, a hiking and cycling path. Bright Museum, in the town's former train station, documents rail and gold rush history.#1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8

With Covid restrictions being lifted in our state, the wife and I took a 2HR drive to Walhalla Some info from the internet https://www.travelvictoria.com.au/walhalla/ Walhalla is a picturesque village, located north of Moe and Traralgon. Nestled in a steep sided valley at the southern edge of the Victorian Alps, the town is surrounded by a national park, lush forests and fern gullies. It was quite busy while we were there, however timing of taking the shots allowed me to make it look a little deserted. Apologies for the number of images. Admin please delete if not appropriate #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15 #16 As we were in rural Victoria, a couple of the locals #17
