Nice images with a fair bit of potential i think. Maybe a little flat but do look nice after a bit of a tweak.

Not much to do with this one, just straighten it up a bit and boost the nice colours .

Great pictures thanks, we were supposed to be taking a trip up there in a few weekends time.


Do you have to get a ferry across or can you drive/walk?

You have to catch a boat but the crossing only takes a minute!

The only access is by NT ferry from Orford Quay, with boats crossing regularly to the Ness between 10 & 2 only, the last ferry leaving the Ness at 5.
It's only open on Saturdays during October then closed until May.

Did you see the (disarmed) Nuclear Bomb?

That gave me a chill that did. Tiny little thing. Huge bang.

Yup,
