          Thanks Tom for taking a looking and your comments. Yes, it a lovely place and often called as the "Gateway to Snowdonia"- which is indeed a beautiful part of UK; it is also in North Wales.

                  I've had that problem too - had to switch to IE rather than Firefox

                      Thank you Bill and Brian. Re the 503 problem, I have to post the pics one by one and then check to see if it has come up on the screen. It is the time lag between each post which I think is the cause of the blank screen,at times.

                        iii a & b are my pick Nat, all the subjects sit comfortably in the frame and reflect the subject title very well, first is just three bums without much context, and the second, the couple need to be looking into the empty space, not behind them.
                        Concentrate on equipment and you'll take technically good photographs. Concentrate on seeing the light's magic colours and your images will stir the soul. - Jack Dykinga
                        Light makes photography. Embrace light. Admire it. Love it. But above all, know light. Know it for all you are worth, and you will know the key to photography- George Eastman

                          Thanks Les for your C&C; much appreciated. Re the Bums, I did want to take their bums anyway; perhaps I should have tried to capture what they were looking at. Re the second, I can crop the rear and leave the empty space in front. However, I did want to show the close bodily contact of the couple and the dog which was my primary aim.
