Struggling

Yawn...my enthusiasm is at something of a low point today. Have a gate. Oh, and a mountain.
not just ANY mountain... a mountain with SNOW!
September 24th, 2014  
You don't play fair! Nice view though!
September 24th, 2014  
I love this composition of a great landscape. FAV.
September 24th, 2014  
@anazad511 Thank you very much, much appreciated
@tammyputney What? There's rules?? ;) Thanks very much
@northy Yes, well...we've a few fresh falls over the last couple of days...
September 24th, 2014  
What a cool fence. Oh and nice mountain.
September 24th, 2014  
@bigugly Thanks - I was really drawn to it as well. I tried to get a decent shot but I couldn't figure out how to get rid of that big rock.
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens Man, you should have called me. I had a fix for you, jump fence turn around, take photo and voila no pesky rock!
September 24th, 2014  
@bigugly LOL, wish I'd thought of that. But it would meant expending energy, so...I'm out.
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens Yeah, good point...hey, Awesome mountain back there, oh and a gate...meh.
September 24th, 2014  
@bigugly I might go back and burn it down
September 24th, 2014  
Its a fantastic mountain!
September 24th, 2014  
@maishanny It is, but I can't help thinking it's an average shot! Thanks very much though, always appreciated...maybe I just need some sleep
September 24th, 2014  
well maybe I am average too but - I love the gate and the mountain ain't half bad either - maybe I am tired - nah I'm not I slept well and don't have anything on until netball tonight
September 24th, 2014  
But, it's so beautiful!!
September 24th, 2014  
Fab too!:)!
September 24th, 2014  
Nice gate and mountain. Perhaps you should listen to more Bieber...
September 24th, 2014  
I like the gate. It's a nice touch!
September 24th, 2014  
Great capture:)
September 24th, 2014  
beautiful!
September 24th, 2014  
Dear old Mt Egmont - or are you not supposed to call it that now?
September 24th, 2014  
Yawn!!!! FAV !!!!
September 24th, 2014  
But what a great gate and mountain! Love the perspective!
September 24th, 2014  
Great shot... fav
September 24th, 2014  
@annied Wait...you have nothing on?
@cailts Thanks very much but...meh...
@nanderson Thanks very much
@888rachel Not on your life! And thank you :)
@eyeamlisa Thanks very much - it was quite heavy but I got it where I wanted it in the end...
@joemuli Thanks very much
@firefly8642 Thank you kindly
@maggiemae To be honest I'm not sure what we're meant to call it...
@hermann Thanks very much indeed, too kind
@orangecrush Thank you kind sir, appreciated
@julzmaioro Thanks very much, far too kind!
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens and that's the bit you pick up on LOL
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens
dammit - others have fav'd it - other averages abound - maybe they had nothing on too
September 24th, 2014  
A gate, a mountain... what more should be said? Some days, we shoot the view that presents.
September 24th, 2014  
Not bad for a day lacking enthusiasm. You took a good stab at it...you just didn't have a knife! ba-da-dum-bum. I know. A groaner. Did you, at least, crack a grin? A tiny one?
September 24th, 2014  
Nice one. Wish I was there!
September 24th, 2014  
Know how you feel! Still, you posted a good shot!
September 24th, 2014  
I would love this boring view when I loose my mono!
September 24th, 2014  
still pretty epic! what a view!!!
September 24th, 2014  
Nice shot of ?Egmont
September 24th, 2014  
@777margo Thanks very much - I'm not sure which is correct these days but it's either Taranaki or Egmont!
@andrewkru Thanks very much - that rock tends to dominate the skyline everywhere here!
@pamknowler It's a horrible view. Bah! ;)
@dibzgreasley Thanks very much - just couldn't get with it today
@shepherdmanswife Thanks very much :)
@voiceprintz I did crack a grin...notice how there's nothing alive in the fields though...?
@rosiekerr Some days we do...thanks
@annied Did you expect any less?
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens not at all - I am always pleased when you meet my expectations
September 24th, 2014  
@annied As the bishop said to the actress, I aim to please
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
September 24th, 2014  
Lovely, even if it offends you!! :-))
September 24th, 2014  
@panthora Thanks very much, and I'm still offended! ;)
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens what's this about being offended LOL
September 24th, 2014  
@annied By the photo...don't panic!
September 24th, 2014  
Struggling when it is bright and cheerful?
September 24th, 2014  
@yaorenliu It was a difficult day motivationally speaking
September 24th, 2014  
Sam
Why didn't you burn the fence down?
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens oh - phew! I thought you were softening there for a moment - I must disagree though - the photo is not the least bit offensive
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens @gigiflower interesting thought Miss Sam - it does look like quite a sturdy gate though
September 24th, 2014  
@gigiflower That's tomorrows shot ;)
@annied Oh yes it is!
September 24th, 2014  
Sam
@graemestevens @annied Thank Baby Jesus for bringing back fire. We need it after the Duck photo!
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens I am sure if you really wanted it to - it would succumb
September 24th, 2014  
@gigiflower hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha @graemestevens
September 24th, 2014  
@annied Many things succumb to me without even knowing it. And @gigiflower I'm not sure if there will be fire tomorrow. I just found out that we have a "surprise" management visit. Ducking hell. Duck it all.
September 24th, 2014  
Sam
@graemestevens @annied Why don't you set fire to your desk upon their arrival, as you tell them to get ducked?
September 24th, 2014  
@gigiflower I might just walk out in a huff...or I could flounce in my lingerie
September 24th, 2014  
Beautiful capture
September 24th, 2014  
Great shot - enjoy your day tomorrow…. A few of us are off to visit the sculptures at Gibb's Farm near the Kaipara Harbour - Google it - you'll be wishing you were in our Camera er Photo Club!
September 24th, 2014  
@dide Thanks very much - I'm already jealous!!!
September 24th, 2014  
What would you do without that mountain? Stunning as always
September 24th, 2014  
@deliad It's a pretty good go to...and thank you
September 24th, 2014  
Very nice capture and a fav
September 24th, 2014  
@tonygig Thanks very much, too kind!
September 24th, 2014  
The gate is nicely lit and clear and the mountain has a dreamy quality to it. I like the photo! Beautiful view!!
September 24th, 2014  
@kt8ird Thanks very much indeed :)
September 24th, 2014  
@graemestevens flouncing in underwear sounds good. Uninspired generally or just photographically? Is that a real word? Need chocolate I think.
September 24th, 2014  
Sue
mt egmont? A mighty mountain.
September 24th, 2014  
Nice photo of the rock and gate in front of it, Why do they have it fenced off?
September 24th, 2014  
Unfortunately, I must admit I added this as a fav.
September 24th, 2014  
September 24th, 2014  
We had a public holiday, so we slept in late, went out for lunch, had a lazy lovely day, and rain...............and YOU? Went to work................! You got your mojo back now??? ;)
September 24th, 2014  
You could always climb it barefoot for a great view!
September 24th, 2014  
@newbank Just generally, which affect anything...sigh
@redpants Definitely Egmont. Or Taranaki. Which ever you prefer :)
@bill_fe Thanks very much - I believe they have it fenced of to keep the peasants from despoiling it's mighty slope with the touch of their common feet.
@lynnilou I did go to work while you relaxed...and I don't think so...
@ceilidh I could...but I won't ;)
September 24th, 2014  
Gorgeous shot, boring to you, but pleasing to those of us who have to endure miles of flatness.
September 24th, 2014  
@ukandie1 I'd love miles of flatness, particularly on my ever increasing torso...thank you so much :)
September 24th, 2014  
Chocolate is then. My nightly hot choc with marshmallows is being made by my hubby. Yum!
September 24th, 2014  
What a pointy mountain your Mount Egmont is......a perfect cone shape.....that snow is awesome. We drove up here one night to a parking place about half way up...the view was spectacular. The gate is a nice addition. I am liking your lack of enthusiasm picture.
September 24th, 2014  
Fave too!
September 24th, 2014  
@newbank Lucky you - I have made it to my office and await the arrival of management. Not eagerly.
@happypat Thank you very much - spectacular views abound from up that rock
September 24th, 2014  
Great landscape!
September 24th, 2014  
lovely gate and ooh a mountain....no really
Awesome shot!
September 24th, 2014  
@overalvandaan Thanks very much
@livvy Meh, I'm still non-committal about this shot, but thank you very much :)
September 24th, 2014  
Awesome!
September 25th, 2014  
@angeliekevl Thanks very much
September 25th, 2014  
This mountain is ALWAYS amazing. Love the blue sky.
September 25th, 2014  
Wow, so pretty and huge!
September 25th, 2014  
@jess1204 Thanks very much, still not happy with it though...deep sigh
@tatopaz Thank you very much :)
September 25th, 2014  
fab fab fab
September 25th, 2014  
You are blessed to live somewhere to beautiful! Such a gorgeous capture!
September 25th, 2014  
@pinkpaintpot Thanks thanks :)
@lilminimonka thank you very much :)
September 25th, 2014  
Beautiful indeed. FAV
September 26th, 2014  
Wonderful shot! Wouldn't have known you were struggling if you hadn't mentioned it! Your Mount T is like our PikesPeak here!
September 26th, 2014  
@cathrinemitch Thanks very much, and for the follow
@harbie Thanks very much...still not feeling the love for this shot but it's in the past now!
September 26th, 2014  
Pam
A mountain with snow is very enjoyable!
September 29th, 2014  
@pammerritt Thank you very much
September 29th, 2014  
Great picture of the snow covered mountain, the fence makes a great frame.
September 30th, 2014
