Thanks Micheal, i was running around looking for
a foreground i was afraid to travel to far in case
the clouds rolled in and i thought about the light house
which is only 5 min away from my front door :D
It's not used any more but it was there to show
the entrance to the river, it's cool it kind a looks
like an Apollo lunar Module :lol: That just gives
me an idea for an image.

oh wise man why is the universe so perfect?ah because symmetry loves herself.

I was thinking it must be a lighthouse, but looked kinda wierd! :)
Excellent choice of a foreground object!

Michael i can't believe this is the first time I've used
it in an image i think it's a case of takeing it for granted
as i have been passing it almost everyday for most of
my life.Although i have though about useing as a foreground
over the years but just never got around to it and so thanks
to that NLC display last night i finally have.

Nice one Declan!
The 2nd image is the closest to the actual colours of the display.
(any way you could link to a full size shot?)

Well done on capturing NLC's first go.

Hi Frank thanks for the comments, your bang on
the money about the colour of the second image.
It's the only one with a nice foreground so i spent
a little more time processing it although it didn't need
much.I took 61 images and i'm a wee bit busy and
find it hard to try and sit down processing images
as i'm sure you well know but i will get around to it
sooner rather than later :lol:

Oh I've put the images up on my gallery here www.webtreatz.com/
