Tonywalt, Nice pictures of beach and storm clouds on the horizon, and the colours of the barn owl are well brought out.
Thanks. I love owls, beaches and storms:)Quote:

Someone doing kicks on the beach in the cayman islands, at sunset.
Nice sunset with that guy in the air.
Your pictures are gorgeous, Tony. Is there anything you can't do, lol?
I can't find my iphone, at the moment.Quote:

I speak with a mid-atlantic accent. I'm not familiar with secret accounts, sorry can't help you.Quote:

That's interesting. I ain't never, not never had no one say I sound southern. :-0 No, I'm a Yankee. Do you mean that most honkies who live in the Cayman Islands speak with a mid-Atlantic accent? The secret offshore accounts thing probably doesn't exist anymore, but as you probably know that Cayman Islands was traditionally where gangsters and politicians (insert joke about there being no difference between them) hid their ill-gotten gains. Nowadays it's probably in the form of some crypto-currency living on a hard drive in some occult data haven, in the back of a pork rinds factory in Little Rock.Quote:

Beautiful Autumn colours!
Some of you are really quite good photographers, Tony and North Star in particular. Are you semi-professional or serious amateurs? I have an interest in getting into video and some photography and would like to learn about getting started with DSLR cameras, if you are.
I'm an amateur and don't have any experience of shooting video, but ask away if you have questions, Tyrion.

I'm happy to help. i've shown my work at some galleries and done some work for people - but i'm happy to help, especially with Nikon.Quote:

These half-light pics create a mysterious atmosphere. Especially the last one with what looks like wisps of fog drifting across.
OMG, North Star, I love your pictures.
Enjoying the current back and forth trend in extremes, from black to white so to speak;the gray tones of Finland to the rich colors of the Cayman Islands.
Yes, it makes a nice contrast. The same for here in Sweden.
Yeah, more great photos. Cayman Island life must be pretty laid back, eh, Tony?
It can be on Sundays. Otherwise it's much the same as far as life goes. The view is laid back.Quote:

On the north side of Grand Cayman. Cayman Kai. A deserted beach.
There is a problem with your pictures, Tony. They are too perfect. You need to make them less so. I kid! The colors are ahmazing! I particularly like the one of the mangrove. I would love to paint it in watercolor. At my skill level I doubt I could do it justice, but I'd like to try sometime.

Deserted beach in Cayman Islands
Gods, you guys keep bringing the awesome shots. Don't stop, my brothers, let the awesomeness flow.
It looks as if the lower palm trees are lit by the rising sun, but not their upper palms. Remarkable...
I'm surprised to see the gate. Is this for decoration or does it have some practical use?Quote:
