A more formal, laid-out, part of the gardens at Beningbrough – a covered path with several trees, covered in pears.

Some Mist
Am exercise in composition, as much as anything – a thick mist reducing visibility to a couple of hundred yards, whilst out with Dog.
St John’s Kirk, Perth
I still remember the place for being very unwelcoming last September – however at least the building has a rather photogenic profile from the outside.
Recursion
…see recursion.
One of the many shots that have changed since I was last in Perth – the remains of an estate/letting agent, ironically now itself up for sale. It’s not like Perth didn’t have enough such shops elsewhere in the legal/restaurant/cultural district, so I’m a bit surprised they even bothered trying out here.
Story of one’s life
Babypolo has issues with an excessively enthusiastic engine immobilizer unit, resulting in long stays by the roadside and at petrol pumps, normally at the most inopportune moments when one would otherwise like to make a quick getaway. Humpf.
This could easily turn into a ‘places I have abandoned the car’ photo theme :/
Some Weed
A different view on the same scene as previously featured, thus time with a focus on cow-parsley in the foreground.
Fields of yellow and green
Two fields, grass recently cut
The Colours of Success
The first tomato is ready! Epic win. 🙂
Newton Stewart
I seem to be back in the old temporary stamping ground for the morning, while the car gets its MOT done… so I went for a stroll around the town – which doesn’t take long – to appreciate the views of the river Cree from the bridge.
A Hard Life
After the rains of yesterday evening, today had turned out sunny so far. Naturally, Dog’s bed had to be moved for optimum ray-catching potential.
Keeping cool
It’s been a bit warm the past couple of weeks; with temperatures over 23C indoors in the study and the sun beating down pretty fiercely, we’ve reduced Dog’s walks especially at lunchtime. This is where having a bit of woodland nearby proves its worth – the gentle breeze, sounds of leaves rustling and several degrees cooler makes it quite a relief.
Summer in the Village
A bright summer day: kids playing on the beach and swimming in the sea, reflections of bright white buildings in the water and a catamaran coming in to park itself.
More clouds
This is the view from near the far end of the evening stroll with Dog, up at the junction with Lagganmore golf course looking back toward the coast. Quite often the clouds catch my eye – especially with the sight display of crepuscular rays.
Sunlight and Smoke
Another weekend, another bonfire. And while it’s a pain avoiding the smoke as it’s blown around in the changing wind, it does make for some wonderful light and colours streaming through the trees.
Ailsa Craig
One of my favourite bits of coastline is that just north of Lendalfoot on the A77 through Ayrshire, for its great geology and view over to Ailsa Craig, the home of granite used in curling stones. On a pure clear blue sunny day, who could resist it?
