David, why don't you do it professionally?

If you click on the title to this post, above, you will get through to David Watson's website. There you will see wonderful shots and he is an amateur!  I know many people who are gifted amateurs in so many different fields. Many of them say at some time that they would like to make their hobby their living. I once heard someone say that if you do this you will either make a poor living or you'll end up hating your hobby. I think there is something in that. Congratulations David, and thank you for the permission to use them.

This lovely shot of Loch Etive is by Jane Shaw of New Cumnock

I asked Jane if she knew of anyone who might have some lovely shots of the area and she offered me the run of her Flickr pages. The link to them is there in the title to this post, if you click on it. She and her husband are both photographers. For me, the thing that makes this picture is the line of waves, they lead your eye into the view. Thank you Jane for letting us have it.
