    No, I only wish. I have an 'el cheapo' camera that serves me well with this passion of mine. But I appreciate the compliment indeed.

    As well, thanks for the kind comments, craze, Idril, and Manolia.

    BTW, that bridge is a foot bridge and was crossed only once by a motor vehicle. The vehicle(s) in question were driving the Queen of England, she was in the main car and then there was her 'entourage' (is that the word?). Neat, eh?

    Which highlights the fact that a cheap camera not necessarily equals a bad camera. This one does seem to serve you well, because the picture is well done by camera as well as photographer.

    Well, although I am not a professional photographer...but photography has been a passion of mine for a long time...I even learnt to develop my own black and white photographs...and I think your photographs are beautiful...you have the Eye...the Eye....and your pictures, they have this quality of admireabliity

    Niamh, Claes and Lote, such bad manners I have to not thank you for these lovely comments. A humble thank you I offer.

    As for my photography -- I think I have just seen a moment (opportunity) and attempted to grasp it. Mainly luck, i think, but thanks again. **blush**

    You will probably laugh, but I am afraid of those touchy new cameras (as much as I enjoy the artistic work of our friend Claes, that camera would have me in too much awe) ... so I plod away, waiting for just the right moment, and there you have it....

    Maybe I should just bite the bullet and move on up? (plus, classes sound like a lot of fun!)

    I spent this week in Stockholm... and of course I brought the camera

    First, some pictures from the old town:







    Then on to a bored guard at the Royal Castle:



    and the site of our government:



    A fountain (deliberately) turned into a skating opportunity:



    And some pictures of Stockholm by night:

    Very cool, everybody! I'm so glad I found this thread. I'll have to dig up some of my pics and add them, once I figure out how! Keep up the amazing work.
    A bit that I wrote: Vanilla Ice Cream. Comments and critique welcomed! :-)

    Try this old thread, with hints on that very subject.

    Claes, I enjoyed your pictures very much -- my favorite would be the fountain turned to skating opportunity -- wow, how I would love to try out that ice ....

    The other favorite would be the first Stockholm by night photo -- that looks just like a postcard.

    Great eye, Claes!
