Symmetry, Glencoe, Scotland
Mirro reflections at this loch in Glencoe. The wait for an hour or so for the rain to clear was worth it.
Evening light, Castle Stalker, Scottish highlands
Lovely late evening light at this iconic Scottish Castle.
Twisted, Glencoe, Scotland
I love the shape of this belligerent looking tree in Glencoe
Tolkiens rainbow, Barnweil, Ayrshire
Stormy weather produced these lovely conditions at this local monument. Like something from Lord of the Rings.
Rannoch Reflections, Glencoe, Scotland
A 330am Summer alarm call was well worth it for this beautiful sunrise at Rannoch more near Glencoe.
Crowns engine houses, Botallack, Cornwall
These famous remnants of the tin mining era perch precariously to the cliff edge on the western coast of Cornwall. The sky behind me was ablaze, making the buildings glow.
Scarasta clouds, Outer Hebrides
Beautiful cloud formations and an abandoned beach in the Outer Hebrides
Light on the shire
After an evening of sunshine and showers I gambled that there might be one last burst of light left. And there was. Probably my favourite kind of light.
Golden hour
Late summer grasses lit at the end of the end at Dunure Castle, Scotland
Castle under the stars
The ancient ruins of Dunure castle, Scotland under the milky way
End of days
Early September 2021 found me chasing mist across the countryside. There was a huge bank of mist just offshore but it didn't extend inland as far as I'd like, though it did help diffuse the setting sun. The title signifies a few things to me - end of the summer, end of lockdown - and the hope of better days ahead.
Rock, castle, stars
The ancient ruins of Dunure Castle under the milky way, Ayrshire, Scotland.
Dunstanburgh fireworks
An incredibly colourful display of dawn colours at Dunstanburgh Castle, Embleton, Northumberland
Embleton dawn, Northumberland
A gorgeous autumnal dawn at Embleton bay. Low tide made it a little easier to negotiate the slippery boulders on this beach and find an area of still water to reflect the clouds.
Suilven rainbow
Autumn showers in the Scottish highlands with the occasional rainbow thrown in for good measure. My lens seemed to be magnetically drawn to this mountain, Suilven.
Highland Rainbow..
A gorgeous autumnal day of sunshine and rain. After a thorough soaking I wondered if this might happen...
Together on split rock
A couple brave strong winds at Split Rock on the Assynt coast, Scotland.
Assynt wilderness
A hike through repeated cycles of rain and sun led to this vista. Suilven lies moodily in shadow as the sun illuminates the foreground.
The Wailing Widow
Like a set from Lord of the Rings, this waterfall in Assynt is probably the most spectacular in Scotland.
Loch, mountain and trees
A little loch in the far north of Scotland during autumn. A gorgeous day of sunshine, showers and magical light.
Croft by the sea
A typical croft house, now abandoned, in the highlands of Scotland
Rolling waves, Lewis
A beautiful winter day with large rolling waves coming straight off the Atlantic. The Isle of Lewis is wild and rugged, though the Cormorant seemed to be taking it all in its stride.
To Taransay...
A passing winter storm with fantastic foreground light and a rainbow off on the horizon. I cloned out the unicorn. It was too much.
