Newcastle by night

[Alberta56]

The clever dick camera did all the work. It wasn't raining then either

[sassy59]

Very striking, thank you. Xx❤️🥰

[Thepainterswife]

Stunning photo Alberta 😍

[Alberta56 in reply to Thepainterswife]

Thank you, but the camera did all the work. It takes 3 photos at once in night mode, making busy little whirring noises as it does so. Then it somehow amalgamates them, removing camera shake as it does so. I just point it and press the trigger; it's rather like being back using my mum's box camera. 😉😉😉 xxx

[Thepainterswife in reply to Alberta56]

I need one of those cameras ! What make is it Alberta ? xx

[Alberta56 in reply to Thepainterswife]

It's a Canon Eos 100D. It's a SLR, so you can buy lots of interchangeable lens for it. I sometimes wonder if I would have been better off with a smaller lighter bridge camera, since I can't manage lugging anything heavy around these days. xxx

A super photograph Alberta. We crossed the Tyne by another bridge when our sat nav insisted on taking us through the centre of Newcastle en route to Northumberland several years ago. Our view wasn't so picturesque.

[Alberta56 in reply to CDPO16]

Thank you. That riverside area has been made into a lovely place for people to stroll about, particularly when it's not raining. xxx

that is a nice photograph.

[Jaybird19]

beautiful and a steady hand !

[Alberta56 in reply to Jaybird19]

My hands are no longer steady, I'm afraid. The camera set to night setting eliminates camera shake, which means you no longer have to lug a tripod about and guess how many seconds to leave the shutter open. xxx

[Alberta56]

Your father sounds like the original purple meanie, if you don't mind me saying so. Everybody knows that fish and chips would enhance the educational experience. I went to Seahouses briefly. It was raining. 🐟🐟🐟 (This useless emoji doesn't have a picture of a chip 🙁.) xxx

[CDPO16]

What a pity, the fish and chips we had at Seahouses while on holiday were very good.

[peege]

A beautiful and stunning photo Alberta56

[Alberta56 in reply to peege]

Thank you. xxx

[CDPO16]

Didn't know that but probably wouldn't have been tempted.

[Alberta56]

You have had a lot to deal with- well done you for still being undefeated by it all. xxx

[eleanordigby]

Love it, so much going on and the bridge looks majestic. There’s a mystical quality to it too. You say the camera did all the work but I say “pah!”, you captured and framed the picture. A tremendous sight!

[Alberta56 in reply to eleanordigby]

Thank you, kind lady.

Thank you.

[OOB_Tigger]

Lovely photo, very clear. If you hadn't said otherwise, it could be somewhere abroad. Thanks for sharing x

[Alberta56 in reply to OOB_Tigger]

The big bridge was actually the model for Sydney Harbour Bridge. xx

[Mooka]

that’s a lovely photo. Thank you for sharing. ❤️

[Alberta56]

Thank you. xx

[doddsie]

That is a gorgeous photo. Used to work in Newcastle and couldn't wait for the metro to exit the underground tunnel so I could see that view, really makes you smile,never get tired of looking at it, thanks x

[Alberta56 in reply to doddsie]

I love all the bridges, all stunning in their different ways.

[djbctla]

all the best with the viewing tomorrow Bernardine xxx

[Morrison10]

just catching up as not sleeping ! Remember the bridge, and angel of north from when we went up there on motorbike. Also had excellent fish and chips in Seahouses. On another occasion walked short way along Hadrian’s wall, and then went to remains of Roman village. Thanks for lovely photos, Jean x

[Alberta56 in reply to Morrison10]

We went to Hadrian's Wall too, but the weather was most disappointing. Weather to put the camera away and buy a post card. xxxx
