Towering cliffs

Almost desperate for a photo today - I’ve done just about everything in sight! And out of sight! My computer was so bad today! We decided to update it to Yosemite. It has taken 5 hours so far!

This is our wonderful wood burner with a piece of old man pine just simmering inside the burner. Not cliffs!

Three good things:
1. I did have my Macbook Air that was being good and works well, just not as good with some apps that work on my iMac.
2. I have found out how to grow lilies from the seed but it has taken 3 weeks for the first growth to show. Now put in individual pots and in a cold place for 6 months! I’ll have to remember what they are then!
3. Our phone is very quiet - John changed from copper to fibre and its not working yet.

Clever shot, it really does look like lit up cliffs.

[Simply Amanda]

You fooled me for a bit there...fooler:).

[Bep]

You were very creative in finding a photo moment today.

[Stephanie Swift]

Love the light, colour and texture on the glowing wood. Congrats on growing lilies from seed--what colour or colours are they going to be?

[Maggiemae]

@tristansmum I think they are Asian lilies Stephanie - the seeds just were sent as a bonus with a purchase for blue poppy seed.

[Call me Joe]

Very clever concept:)!

[Paula W]

Love that warm glow on the 'cliffs'.

[Pat Knowles]

I can't load 365 on my iPad tonight so having a quick look on my phone....,looks so cosy!

[Maggiemae]

@paulaw Thats all the cave men with their flaming torches, Paula!

[Maggiemae]

@happypat Thank heaven for little.... phones!

[Terry]

What a eerie but cool shot.

[Paula W]

Did you clone out the cavemen? ;)

[~*~ Jo ~*~]

Great idea and capture. I'm like @happypat having to use mobile. Males everything so slow.

[Judith Greenwood]

Looks lovely and cosy - having trouble with 365 at the mo but other websites ok

[Maggiemae]

@paulaw No, they are bending down low so all you see of them is their dark heads - and even then thats pretty hard to spot!

[Maggiemae]

@maggiemae must be the weather in Britain - 365 is OK here!

[Skip Tribby - ​🖖]

I think it looks like cooling lava,

[Pam Knowler]

Looks so warm and cosy! This is the first time I have been able to get onto 365 this evening. I think all the rain has got into the system! Lol!

[bkb in the city]

Neat shot

[katy]

Perfect proof of how suggestable the mind is! I wondered where in the world there were such beautiful well lit cliffs!

[Tony]

Clever shot interpreted in a very creative way. I kept looking for any sign of a skyline.

[Allison Williams]

Lovely image. That is worrisome about the computer upgrade. Is that length of time within acceptable limits?

[Maggiemae]

@allie912 My computer was running very slow so it took some time to load - OK now after upgrade but still problems as expected. No iPhoto allowed!

[Maggiemae]

@skipt07 I think thats what my mind said when I saw it, Skip but settled for cliffs instead!

[gloria jones]

Cool, clever shot

[Pat Knowles]

@ziggy77 @judithg Can't be our fault then.....just 365 a problem last night! Seems ok this morning!

[Margaret Obey]

...my first thought was when did Maggiemae see the Cliffs of Mohr, wow re the sunset and where the heck was she when she snapped them ...then I read your commentary ...oops!

[Maggiemae]

@ceilidh Just did google of your Cliffs, Margaret, and my layers in this piece of burning wood gave a good impression of Mohr!!

[Maggiemae]

@happypat Its always nice to know someone else has the same problem - not so good when your particular computer is dragging its heels! Now its got a huge program going through it - 100s of thousands of files and saying what its found wrong so far. 43 at the moment! But we don't have to pay this thing!

[Leana Niemand]

I hope you get it sorted soon - very frustrating.

[Maggiemae]

@leananiemand Thanks Leana - I bet we all go through this!

[Nina Ganci]

creative capture. it does look like cliffs.

[gayelene]

Great shot and you had me fooled so fav for that :)

[Maggiemae]

@onlyme111 Well, its pretty ordinary, Gayelene so I had to beef it up a bit! Ta for your fav!

[Yao RL]

I like photography under pressure and with limitation, there are always something coming out with a surprise.

[Rick Schies]

It makes for an interesting photo. Good luck with the lillies

[Barb]

Very cool shot, Maggie. I miss our fire - we weren't allowed to replace ours when the house was rebuilt.

[Taffy]

Amazing, they do look like cliffs and mysterious ones at that.

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Lovely colours in your capture

[Irene]

Margaret@ceilidh got in first. They are like these cliffs at sunset. As a wood burner it looks warm and comforting

[Judith Johnson]

Sounds like you're having a few problems. Ah well at least you have that cosy fire!

[Gena Pegg]

Nice and toasty!!! Good shot of it. What is Yellowstone?

[Molly]

A lovely low-key shot.

[Maggiemae]

@eyesmile Yosemite is the latest running system for Apple Macintosh computers, Gena. Before that it was Snow leopard and so on.

[summerfield]

this is a scorcher! like our weather! 33 feeling like hell! nice one, maggiemae..

[Dee L.]

I thought they were really cliff until I read your paragraph and then I could see that it was an ember. Nicely done.

[Jen Hudson]

Could gaze at this and see lots of faces and all sorts of strange things!

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

I like the concept - they do look like illuminated cliffs and actually quite spooky as well!

[Nick]

Very nice shot - makes me feel warm to look at it.
