Rough Island
 

Just back from a family holiday in Dumfries & Galloway in south west Scotland where we discovered a wonderful tiny uninhabited island - Rough Island - reachable at low water via a causeway from a picturesque village called Kippford. Well, the opportunity was too good to miss so along with the kids and a disposable BBQ (!) I took along my trusty 40D, tripod and remote release to see what I could muster. Here's a couple of snaps, hope you like.

This next one was taken as a 30s exposure using a Haida ND3.0 ten stop filter
