    I posted these in another thread, but I thought they might have been better posted here, some shots of my flowering Alpines.

    Fantastic doc  image

    Particularly like all the bird ones, but I love the very first pic. The contrast of the sun and shadows is stunning. 

    I also love the monitor lizard. He looks like he's trying very hard not to slide off....image

    GD - you're having a great time with that new camera! Addictive isn't it? image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
