Partial Lunar Eclipse 20190716
A few photos from Tuesday evening’s excursion to Kinross hunting a partial lunar eclipse
Loch Rannoch Sunset
A few photos from Sunday afternoon’s explorations around Loch Rannoch. We walked through the Black Woods; whilst flying the drone near Camghouran I discovered remains of a building – a pile of stones and hints of mounds in the earth possibly in the shape of a former but’n’ben croft? – in a clearing in the […]
First Munro
I’ve been over 3000′ twice before now – but for one I stopped short of the summit, and for the other we took the ski-lift up, so neither really counts as Munro-bagging. In the Christmas/New-Year holiday week, friends and I spent a happy day climbing Schiehallion – a mountain we’ve known and photographed for a […]
Autumn in Glen Lyon
A few photos from a trip to Glen Lyon in autumn. An ideal route for an afternoon walk-with-Dog took in 3 distinct kinds of woodland: artificial monoculture (spruce etc, clear barren ground) (fortunately being felled with a view to replacement with native trees), some birch and oak, and (another artificial) an avenue of beech trees.

Autumn Years: Abandoned A93 Road, Craighall Gorge

It’s funny to think that the bridge was constructed in 1994 and the road decommissioned in 2008, both of which are well within […]
Inverary: A Tale of Three Techniques
In August I called in on an old friend in Inverary for a small guided tour around the local forests with camera in hand. There was one particular photo I had in mind – ever since I first saw an old ruined barn with disused farm machinery, it was crying-out for the bokeh-panorama (aka Brenizer) technique […]
Abstract Cloudy Skies
Simple pleasures. Two photos of clouds catching the evening sunset light.
Another day… another sunset
“Slight chance of convective weather” is rapidly becoming my new favourite weather alert, especially coming at the end of the day where it signals turbulent blends of low sun, rain and thick clouds. It doesn’t get much better than last night, either. With sunset happening just after dinner… perfect 🙂 And my favoured view of […]
Gear Change Time
I swapped all the Pentax gear to go wholly Fuji. Test photos happened.
