Oh, these are fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing. :)

Some of them are so precious (f.e. Colin and Katie in the lake or Bradley pinned to the wheel) others are downright beautiful. Not only that Dale is a fantastic cinematographer, he's also a very talented photographer. :D

BOYS!!! ♥__♥

Colin becomes more and more beautiful by the day, he was cute when they started filming Merlin 4 years ago, nowadays he's utterly gorgeous.

Colin is born for Camera. When appear on screen or photo shot, he looks SUPERB.

Oooh, thanks for posting these. I love the one of Colin standing in the lake. So many of them are just gorgeous. You are right. Dale is a talented photographer as well as cinematographer.

Colin in the lake is precious. :D

I love Dale's pics, they're always amazing.

*flails* And you've made an icon of it, of course:)

Hey, any idea if there are pictures somewhere of Colin's feet bare? I was having that conversation with someone else recently. We've definitely seen Bradley's feet bare, but I can't recall seeing Colin's feet bare.

*fangirl's Dale* He's pretty amazing.

gealach_ros December 3 2011, 13:59:39 UTC

Of course I made one. #predictable :P

I don't think there are any pictures of Colin with bare feet. Definitely not from any public appearances, Doctor Who, the short film he did years ago, Island or any of the plays. Merlin was wearing socks a few times but iirc he was never bare-footed. We could get lucky with Parked though, there are definitely scenes with Cathal and Fred at the public swimming pool, maybe the camera did us a favour and zoomed in on Colin's bare feet.

He is! :D

OMG, swooning over the adorable naked Colin-legs.
These pictures are the greatest gift. Dale is just amazing.
It's surreal seeing the crew and equipment juxtaposed with the characters in costume and set with all the magical lighting and atmosphere. Loved Aggravaine with the MacBook!

Thank you for finding and posting these. Another heroic effort in sharing the love. <3 <3 <3

Oh, and I LOVE the tree-root in the creek. I might incorporate that into my tree tattoo if I ever find an artist for it. (Sorry for the million edits on my comment!)

Dale's so generous, sharing these new pics is a wonderful gift to all fans. They're really special since many of them were taken when there were no fans around (studio or locations in Wales). :D

It wasn't very difficult (and for sure not heroic) to find them, Dale tweeted that he'd uploaded new pics to his website. ;)

kattale December 3 2011, 14:22:49 UTC

I guess what I find heroic is that, when you discover something new and wondrous and beautiful like Dale's photos, your first instinct is to share the joy you feel with the rest of us. And then you go through all the hard word to embed them on your site so that everyone is alerted they are here.

You could have enjoyed them yourself and not said a word - you could have mentioned it to your close friend so you could share a squee. You could have done your fannish duty by posting a link to Dale's site saying "New Merlin photos HERE".

You went over and above, and put a lot of effort out for our benefit. I just wanted you to know how deeply I appreciate that, and how it makes me feel all glowy for you. (Not creepy-glowy. Just impressed and fond. LOL.)

According to some of the Merlin crew it must've been one of the hottest days of filming (in France), but also one of the best days because they all had so much fun. :D

I really don't mind to see Bradley in various states of undress every other week, but I'd LOVE to see more of Colin, too. We only got him shirtless 4 years ago, it's about time that TPTB grant us more gratuitous nekkid Colin. His nekkid legs are a lovely appetizer. :D

So, so sad. I wasn't the most ardent Lancelot fan in S1 but got to love the character because Santiago was so good at playing him. I still don't want to believe he'll never be on the show again. :( It's especially sad as Lancelot was the only other person apart from Gaius who knew about Merlin's magic. It would've been wonderful if they'd been able to explore that a bit more (not to mention A/G/L - I would've loved to see a bit more of an actual love triangle, too).
