Thanks Alan for the cool comment! We are quite lucky to have such a magnificent 'hill' in our back yard and to capture images at different times of the season is well enjoyed :)

WOW!! What a gorgeous view you have from your home. I have a few little mountains around my house but nothing to compare to this. I really like the contrast between the very white snow and the golden clouds.

Hi Brian and Jas and appreciate you both commenting. Mt Egmont is in our province, Taranaki, NZ and I was just outside our house gate when I took this. I had just purchased my Olympus with an 18X super zoom so this was my first shot. I must admit to playing with the colour of the sky in photoshop tho'. Thank you both again :)

Great shot of Mt Egmont! Where were you when you took it? The sky certainly looks very threatening. :)

I like the lighting behind Mt Egmont. Where is this mountain?

Missed this one before - it is a stunning image.

Thanks very much Alandra for the wonderful comment. Seems everyday I want to photograph and am getting alot of pleasure with macro. Also, you were in mind when I finally chose my Olympus when you recommended going for the biggest optical zoom, thank you :)

Hi Cindy, stunning image! My first reaction was that you must've been on a plane. Am happy for you that you are enjoying your new camera so much. My friend in UK had an Olympus and he got some great images with it (one of the first digitals they made I believe).

Ok Vicki, you have twisted my arm and I can see I won't get any peace until I tell!!! hahaha. I am the proud owner of a new Olympus SP550-UZ with the big optical zoom for zooming in on the mountain and my cats face! Such fun that at times I can't contain myself! "Yahooo"

OK - I'll bite - what new camera and accessories did you get?

Thanks heaps to Golda, Vicki, Vincent, Whittler and Tania for the real neat comments. Actually Tania, your comment was exactly what Sunny said! And now I am gonna brag about my new camera with the '18X Optical Zoom' hehehe. I am afraid of heights!! Thanks all for viewing, your comments are so appreciated.

Wow Cindy I though you would need to be in a helecopter to get this shot well done.

Guest - Jul 19, 2007 07:15 PM EDT
