Well I tihnk it is Nobbie, I am only 13 so don't know/rember many places too well. I was/am just experimenting with the black and white mode on the camera

That's the shot mate! Would've loved to see that in colour too, if you have it...

[dewy]

Un fortunatelly no, It was taken in b/w on the camera, next time I am down tehre I'll take a few Colour shjots for you (it is only about 45mins max from home)

Hey dewy, great shot... I like the contrast and the detail...

Watch out too that you keep your horizon straight in the frame. I get mine crooked all the time!

If you shoot in colour, then later remove the colour when on the computer, as compared to shooting in black and white mode on the computer, is there much difference? You can always turn colour shots black and white, but it's harder to make black and white shots into colour, unless you're colouring in.

As for the horizon - I always have trouble keeping it straight! Then anyone who sees my pictures may think that I can't hold a camera straight. It's hard to judge when using a wide angle lens and the horizon curves, or when it's just windy.

Tell me about it... It's hard to judge from the little LCD screen

But the S5000 has a grid overlay function, which helps.

I have had many problems with the horizon angle, never thought about using the grid either, have to give it ago. I think i am going to shot in colour from now on andconvert using the gimp to b/w.

If I'm going to align, I usually use the square boxes of the autofocus points.

[dewy]

They are not so big on the S5000, but it brings up a big 9square (any one wanna game of naughts and crosses?) white grid =)
