"A wise man once said.
Add reprise at the end of a photo. It sounds posh.
I'll never look back."
"I would love to perfect this. Get all the angles just so and no lens distortion. I was lying contorted underneath my tripod, having to strain to see through the viewfinder. Live view would have been a real bonus here.
This may be the first of many unsuccessful attempts."
"Bit bored tonight, just messing about with an old image - I'm looking for a simple image for the cover of a photo book that I'll be preparing (hopefully in time for christmas) as a gift for friends and family."
"On Barra we camped behind the dunes by the beach.
That sand is perfect - it's something like 90% shell, so it's very white indeed."
Taken at Fraserburgh Bay.
"Another shot with a bit too much flare but I thought I'd post it anyway."
"There was a unusual band of red in the sky that attracted me to this angle."
"Another shot from Loch Bad a' Ghaill. It's such a beautiful place. But if you ever go there on a still evening, between May and October, you'd better be prepared for midges..."
"A wee misty morning on Ard"
"We had a lovely spot of warm weather last weekend and as it was a local holiday on the Monday we decided to visit the beach. As we got closer to the coast we could see the threat of the sea haar (coastal mist) very much in evidence. However, we decided not to let this put us off and continued on and had a great time. While the others were playing rugby on the beach I wandered off with my camera.
"Smeaton's seven-arch masonry bridge across the River Deveron at Banff is similar in both design and structure to his earlier bridge at Perth. The arches at Banff are smaller, however, each spanning 50ft.
As is characteristic of Smeaton's major bridges, the weight of Banff Bridge is in the foundations, while the spandrels incorporate voids between parallel walls. This technique allowed the engineer to minimise the thickness of the arch and thus save money on materials.
The spandrel walls were rebuilt in 1881 and so, although Smeaton's signature ornamental circles were preserved, they are no longer picked out in the original black rubble masonry." "
"Rowers on the River Clyde, Glasgow"
"After a great day with my dad on the Fife coast, it was time to head home to Glasgow. We saw this crop of Rapeseed just before Auchtermuchty, and made a stop to get some shots."
Monument to the miners of Plean.
A commemorative sculpture near the walled garden as a tribute to local miners who worked the pit seams and in memory of those who tragically lost their lives
