This past Saturday was the Word-wide Photo Walk; as has become an occasional habit, I attended the Inverary walk.
There was a trip around the Inverary Jail:
It’s ALIIIVE!!

Inverary Jail, taken on the Worldwide Photo-Walk 2019 What shall we do with this one?
Looking back it does seem somewhere between crazy and barbaric, acts that were considered crimes in previous centuries, their understanding and severity fuelled by basic superstition.

Technologies come and go… Our illustrious host for the Worldwide Photo Walk in Inverary, 2019
One of the challenges for the group was to take a photo of someone we spoke with on the day.
and around the town front and Castle:
Detail of a fallen leaf amongst stones in the River Ary with Inverary Castle in the distance An ornate stone bridge over the River Ary in the grounds of Inverary Castle. An awesome grey stone lump in Gothic Revival style – dating from 1743, replacing an earlier castle of a couple of centuries previous. Scotland’s last working Clyde Puffer, the Vital Spark of Glasgow, berhted at Inverary harbour.
and early-autumn scenery around Dubh Loch:
The beginnings of autumn: no rich leaf colour yet, but shades of yellow and green (equal parts conifer needles and tree-beard lichen) taken across Dubh Loch. Small boat parked above the jetty beside the boathouse, Dubh Loch. A mostly overcast grey end of the day, but with a little subtle direction to the light illuminating the underside of the bridge beautifully.
Some of these are available as prints over on ShinyPhoto .
