    This is the weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Any Brand thread where we invite you to show your own pictures. It is collegial in that it is a pleasant and friendly place among photographers to share.

    I will begin this thread each Monday (Pacific Standard Time) to give each of you all the chance to share your weekend photos with us, for those that follow a regular work week schedule and choose to do it that way. But the pictures can be taken at any time with any camera, including your cell phone. It's open to all skill levels from beginners to advanced. The images posted can be anything from casual snaps to extraordinary. I'll be sure to comment to each of your photos, if you choose to share. Replies from others are encouraged also.

    The intent of this thread to mainly to just show photos in a relaxed way and to generate replies or comments about them. Generally I'm not planning to critique any image unless asked. But I or we may ask things about a photo that may develop into a discussion, always being friendly and helpful. It has been a request that I mention this and from what I've learned from past experience: Can you ask a member first if they would mind you editing their photos?

    Remember it's all about the enjoyment of taking pictures regardless of what we have. We can learn from each. Please share any tips or techniques too. A narrative sometimes also helps. Thanks everyone for your participation.

    Subject: Sand Harbor - Part I

    I took many photos of Sand Harbor while we were visiting Lake Tahoe last October. There were not many people compared to what we would see in summer. I hope you enjoy these.

    Photobygms,

    Thanks. 😀

    Yes, it's a great vacation spot. If you go in summer, sometimes it's hard to find parking anywhere and the prices of hotels are more expensive. But in October, as you can see, there's a lot less people.

    We still have some grey and rainy days, a white and cold Christmas is not going to happen where we live...
    We did go out for a hike. We started with some drizzle but that changed, we did actually see a glimpse of the sun again 😎
    Only at the last mile or so it started raining again, but we are prepared, in all our backpacks we carry ponchos
    We did only took a small selection of gear this time, the R8 and one R6-II and both our 24-240s

    Photobygms,

    That's great you were able to get out and that you were prepared for any wet weather. Right now, we have rainstorm after rainstorm, so it's been hard for me to get outdoors. I managed a few times, but I always carry at least one umbrella. Then I photograph the rain. 😀

    I like the countryside you show. The cows look well-fed and happy. 😀 Since you live in the lowlands, I was curious what type of large rocks did you find in the second photo. Was that sandstone in a more hilly region?

    It's one of the many dolmen we do have where I live. this is Dolmen D8: www.visitdrenthe.com/locations/2607615621/dolmen-d8
    www.hunebednieuwscafe.nl/2017/11/hunebed-d8-strubben-kniphorstbos-near-anloo/

    Most of the "rocks" are from Scandinavia:
