Lunan Bay

In general, lacking high pointy mountains, Angus always strikes me as one of the less dramatic parts of the country. However, I’ve visited the Lunan Bay area a few times and it makes a good escape for an afternoon.

There’s quite a nice beach…

  • Pebbles amongst sand
  • Decaying lump of tree bark on sand
  • A small floral life-form amongst the pebbles and sand.
  • Signs on a shed on the weay to Lunan Bay beach
  • Sweeping leading lines – where the Lunan Water meets the sea
  • Beach details: dead tree trunks/branches embedded in the sand, pointing at a hut amongst the dunes.

and the ruins of Red Castle stand out stark sandstone against blue skies – ideal with high-flying cirrus cloud in the background.

  • Pleasantly contrasty light illuminating the castle ruins, against a dramatic cloudy sky.

  • Quite an impressive ruined castle atop a small hill.
  • Mouth of the Lunan Water outflow through the beach below Red Castle.

It also looks quite good from the air.

And finally, I’m experimenting with a different art form – composite overlays, controlling visual information by selectively retaining structures. Essence of Lunan in one.

Composite: various aspects of an afternoon spent at Lunan Bay blended together.
