Yes, another where is it

[TigaWave]

Getting thoroughly fed up with UK weather, and as I've been scanning some old slides onto the puter thought I'd put some others through the same suffering of looking at idylic sailing locations.
First one a late arrival in the distance,
Second this should be an easy one.

1. Sunset, Tewkesbury yesterday evening. The late arrival is the postman.
2. British West Hartlepool - who says Global Warming is a bad thing?

1. Cant be Tewkesbury, The Abbey is still visible. Could be Worcester looking towards the Carrington Bridge.
2. Agree with Hartlepool.

Nope its not the postman

Marigot Bay, St.Lucia

No 1 - Off The Pitons?
No 2 - Marigot Bay?

 

[TigaWave]

No 2 correct, that was the easy one...great diving on the far side of the headland in the first pic.

What slide scanner?

Just as a matter of interest, what scanner are you using? And software? My attempts to scan slides so far have been pretty disappointing (Reflecta Digitdia 5000 and Canoscan 8600F).

 

[No Regrets]

I would have said St Lucia too, but a peek to the left would confirm Petit Piton.... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

The water in the bay is crystal clear most days....

 

[ChrisE]

Dominica?, can't remember the name of the headland but it is the furthest south one.

BTW, you managed a very quiet day in MB, when we were there you could nearly walk across the boats from one side of the bay to the other and in the morning the open water was covered with enough sh!t to make the journey even easier...

Re: What slide scanner?

This is my first try at scanning slides and although not as good as projecting they look pretty good. The scanner is a Prime film 1800u, software is Cyberview X

 

[TigaWave]

It was quiet, I've been there when it's been busier...the first pic is a very busy bay and the headland points due west.

 

[TigaWave]

I'm off now...it's admiralty Bay Bequia, with a yacht on the way in.

Yep. about 4000 miles away, well it's nearer than say, The Moon.

 

[ccscott49]

Was in both places three years ago, I very nearly did not come back! If I hadn't already met my now wife, I wouldnt have done, or rather only long enough to make storm boards for the boat and gone back!

 

[ChrisE]

Hmm, I'm glad that you liked them. You'll have gathered from my first post that I was less than enamoured with Marigot Bay perhaps I caught it on a bad day, Bequiai was pretty, though, we were there for New Year's Eve when everyone fires off their old parachute flares at midnight very pretty. Ooh, and in case anyone doesn't like that idea I couldn't care less /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: What slide scanner?

I've got an EpsonPerfection 3490 Photo - photos, slides and negs plus direct into pdf and email. Good present!

 

[ccscott49]

You could set off all your parachute flares at any time in Admiralty bay, Bequi and nobody would give a sh!t!!! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
