River Morar
A couple of 'rescued' photograph here.These were taken from the new road bridge and show the old road bridge and the railway bridge.The river is tidal up to the the small 'falls' seen here.

Re: River Morar
Beautiful area, good shots and well worth recovering.
 P.S. We stayed just outside Arisaig a few years ago (cottage with no mains electricity and its own generator - great!) and there was a small guesthouse in Morar run by an Indonesian or Thai lady that did superb food - eat in or takeaway. The Thai fishcakes were brilliant!

.I only had,as it turned out,a two hour 'window' of sunshine and decent skies in Morar.I then jumped the train back to Mallaig.Morar is an un-manned station [no ticket machine either] so I expected a 'conductor' to issue my ticket on board.But no,and when I got to Mallaig there was nobody collecting tickets either! so I ended up with a free mini train trip .This was my first real picture-taking venture with the D200+16-85VR.I am still getting to grips with how the cameras meter 'sees' things and am reverting to my film days and using mainly centre weighted metering with the 'spare' button on bottom-front right of camera to operate the spot-metering function.I do prefer the handling and functions/layout of the D200 over the 20D.

Re: River Morar
I think if I'm honest, No 1 does nothing for me at all but No 2 is excellent!
In the first, if you hadn't mentioned the old bridge and the falls I would never have even noticed they were there. In the second one it is beautifully composed and the colours are really lovely, just turning to autumnal. Bags of interest in that one and would happily put it on the wall Cheers, Rob |
