They did indeed...   And iirc it was due to the shape of the hardtop roof when viewed from the front...   It had a pagoda shape to it with a dip in the middle rising up at the sides

lazing on my deck before the storm

This is probably one of my favourite shots taken so far! A quick visit to Swanage to pass the time, walking along the beach and saw this lone Sandcastle standing tall despite the incoming tide and rough sea

One from yesterday after getting caught out in what was quite a biblical storm cell that rolled through Branksome

 

 

 

[Hyphons]

The photos were 20+mb so another photo from yesterday, quite a lot of localised flooding as this quiet stream turned into a raging torrent very quickly.

A few from around the Tyneham area yesterday, the photo of the deer was an accidental one, it wasn't until I had the photo up on the laptop that I saw him/her

No mac just taken with my phone ,p20 pro ,i were that close tho i could have picked it up ,think there much slower this time of year as their coming to end of their lives .

[mac11irl]

the canera on my own A20e is pretty darn good, and i have an iphone XR work phone which is as good or better.  i doubt either of them would get that level of "wing frame" detail..
