Graham:

Do you use a polarizer with the blue skyies, or do you burn them in at scan 
time?

Some very nice images.  Are you using a tripod for some?  I liked this 
image and figured you had to have it stopped down quite a bit to get that 
much depth of field.  Stopped down, I guess you would still get 1/250th or 
so at f16.

Regards,

Robert
