Pauline...Wonderful Shots... In the first shot, may be you should have done some cropping to avoid the yellow board, which is a little bit distracting. Otherwise, these are all beautiful shots... Thank you very much for sharing.

Thankyou so much for your very helpful comment. I did look at that after I had submitted it, and thought the same as you, but by that stage I couldn't do anything to alter it. I much appreciate your feedback vimalkv.

Thankyou Moby. Aren't they just the most beautiful creatures? and he posed so nicely for the occasion.

Many thanks Leona. You are so kind with your comments. I do try my best, but when I look at some of your work, and others...Mmmmm...I'm still a learner LOL

Thankyou so much for that. There is something very fascinating about Lighthouses and their history. There are still some more on my agenda, but when I will get to shoot them I'm not too sure at this stage.

Stunning and amazing scenery. Will you ever run out of exotic scenes to photograph? I hope not. The sea lion must be a tourist. After all, that's what I do when I go to the beach. Lay in the warm sun and watch the waves, so I nominate that one for my favorite.
