One of the most iconic mountains in Scotland.

Working up on the A87 this delightful scene captured me. Definitely decided to include the foreground to generate added depth and texture.

Sunlight glistens on a perfect spring flower, covered in water drops from a fleeting sleet shower.

Taken from off the Mallaig road.

Stob Dearg of Buchaille Etive Mor on April 29th 2016

Completed on 4th March 1890. Photographed on 4th March 2020. Happy 130th Birthday to the Forth Bridge.

Beautiful, very un-shy, Robin. Photographed from no more than 10 inches away. Taken during lockdown (CV-19), at Blackford Pond.

My first foray into the Highlands with my new Sony Alpha 7

Brügges, built around a canal network is ideally discovered by boat, leading to wonderful views and photo opportunities such as this one.

From the sunrise walk on Braid Hill, Edinburgh. Magnificent light spilling over ice-encrusted Gorse bushes.

Taken just outside Dunbar, East Lothian in the face of a strong North-Easterly wind. I love how the wave line and the cloud mirror each other.

Shot on my new Sony Alpha 7 on a crisp and clear morning.

The edge of the Cairngorm Plateau.

First day of a wonderful week around Scotland with my best friend. Went to Dunnottar at her request based on an Instagram photo she had seen and sent

Sunrise over the Pentland Hills, as viewed from a Farmhouse - the highest house in Central Scotland, where I was staying for a month.

Took a wee stroll up Braid Hill, Edinburgh to capture a frosty sunrise. Gorgeous clear views, this one out to the Pentlands on the south of Edinburgh

It was so sudden as she was a healthy girl so we thought.
