Some Islay Pictures can Say More than a Thousand Words

Monday, January 21 2008

I guess it's true that a picture can say more than a thousand words. Mark Unsworth of Islay Studios was on his way home this afternoon when he witnessed this magical scene. A view over Loch Indaal towards the snow-capped Paps of Jura complimented with a full moon and a clear sky. Absolutely fabulous, many thanks Mark for sharing this with all the readers.

A great photo and while you see more in the larger version, the effect is lost by having to scroll up and down and losing either the bottom or top as a result... resizing it so the height was closer to 728 might be better Ron!

I had to make a comprimise Bruce and felt the picture was too good to resize and would end up too small. I will try and play around with it a bit and see what happens on the screen. If it still looks fine I will change it.

And yes it is a great photo, Mark is a very gifted photographer and this one was taken with his new Hasselblad Camera. I think he mentioned it has around 40 Megapixels.... that's what you can do when you are a professional :-)

40MP? And there's me and Linda thinking we're doing good looking at upgrading to a 10-12MP camera! Then again, a professional one is outside our budget just now... although resorting to film again (something I still consider from time to time) will solve that problem! Anyway, its a great photo and I doubt reducing the size will affect it... after all the version on the forum doesn't look as if its lost any of the quality!

The Maggie

The Maggie is one of Ealing studios lesser known comedies. It is however a 'gem' in the true sense of the word. The film has everything, humour, tragedy, pathos, romance. A wily old skipper of a Western Isles 'Puffer' and his motley crew lead all who come into contact with them a fine old time!
