Ardwell Bay, Rhinns of Galloway, SW Scotland.
May 2017

It's been 4 years since my last visit to this location and I feel I should make more regular trips. I love the dreamy, surreal feel to this image.

Another sublime photo. You're right about that area - used to go there every year for summer holidays when I was a boy.

Good shooting, I took a look at your flickr page and you have some very good bee shots there. I've tried to shoot a few bees in our yard but they are just moving to quickly for me to get a really good focused shot.

Thanks. Not having many flowers in our garden helps! Poor things don't have too many places to fly.
Mostly it's patience and watching their behaviour.

Beautiful scene and lighting. Nicely done. In wadders or perched on a rock?

I like squirrels but they get a bad rep.

Nicely done. There nothing like the added pressure of negotiating a stream with your camera gear!

Funny, but I am a bit dissappointed with nor comments on my pictures - well not no comments but not more comments.

Are they 'that' boring?

If so - I am seeing things wrong or somthing.

Oh well.

Love the colours but why not get rid of the electric wires in front of horse. They kinof seperate the image at the moment.
