Kintra Sea Cliff


Kintra Sea Cliff, originally uploaded by michaelgcumming.

Taken during our recent holiday to Mull. It rained (and blew a gale) a lot of the time but it did clear up one evening. This is a long exposure with the big stopper at dusk looking north-west. Was slightly hindered in what I could do and where I could position myself having forgot my tripod and was having to make do with a £26 cheapo plastic tripod bought from an ironmonger in Tobermory. Better than nothing though.

Was a magical evening, maybe the best I've seen when I've been out with my camera. To top it off, when I had finished a couple of seals appeared about 10m away from this shot and started to play, amazing!

Haaf Netter in the Gloaming


Haaf Netter in the Gloaming, originally uploaded by Novantae.

Haaf-net fishing involves walking out into the murky Solway water with a netted frame and waiting for a fish to swim into it. The net is then flipped up, the fish taken out, knocked on the head with a wooden ‘mell’ (club) and then popped into a bag slung over the fisherman’s shoulders. The men go out in all weathers and stand in the water for hours.
