Scotland

These SNAPS were taken on our holidays in Scotland.

We have visited Scotland many times, and I would like to go again.
We have visited Scotland several times in recent years, and I shall add several albums of our favourite places.

Going away with a photographer meant that we had to visit well-known photographic views, such as the cemetery by the sea and the abandoned boats at Salen, which I, too, found fascinating and full of colour and textures.

The rocks and the trees with spring leaves bursting out in the May sunshine were beautiful.  Mull is a small island, and most of the roads are single-track and although we did not travel far, our journeys seemed to take ages;  Taking photographs may have something to do with that!

I loved the white sandy beaches of Mull, the fascinating rocks and the trees with spring leaves bursting out in the May sunshine.  Mull is a small island, and most of the roads are single-track, and although we did not travel far, our journeys seemed to take ages;  Taking photographs may have something to do with that!

Our visit to Scotland in 2008 was to Loch Katrine in the Trossachs. The Autumn colours were vibrant, and the reflections wonderful.

We spent one holiday just north of Glencoe in Ballachulish, and later holidays usually took us on the road past The Green Welly stop for breakfast and the road through Rannoch Moor and Glencoe.

Many more pictures and information to come

We visited The ISLE of SKYE twice, in May and then again in October. The colours were much more interesting in October, particularly the red and golden colours of the grasses.

We visited the west coast when we were staying in Ballachulish and again, of course, on our way to Skye.  This album will include other places which don’t quite fit into other albums. I will add more images when I have time.
