renault Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 While TE Oregon installation ground on relentlessly in the background, I started cleaning up the "detritus" of leftover shots I made when I first installed my new gpu. Didn't expect to find anything worth saving, but after looking at them I thought well , some weren't quite as awful as I remembered them so here are a few that I kept. Thanks very much for viewing All the best Renault Washington, TE Worthing UK, TE GBS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It brought back a lot of memories. We visited there a few years ago. Its a very interesting place. Don't know if you knew this but it used to be a prison for political prisoners. During the winter they would be sent out every day to cut down trees for firewood. The would saw off the tree at the "snowline" . Now when you go to the areas where they were sent out to (there's now a tourist train that runs on the same narrow gauge rail line that was built to haul the trees back on) you see vast areas of tree stumps (trees grow very slowly there because of the climate). But the fascinating thing is that various groups of tree stumps within a group are the same height, but that the groups are at different heights, reflecting the variable snowfall levels from winter to winter. Neat place ! Cheers Pete 12 hours ago, Jack Sawyer said: Dang Renault, is these are your throwaways then they make mine look like rubbish! Ah Jack, You know how it is . You become your own worse enemy when it comes to your own work. At least I do.., But thank you. I'm pleased you enjoyed them Cheers Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
