Lily Loch
Evening reflections at the Lily Loch Inspirational Image has been a bit quiet recently – three weeks seem to have gone by in the space of one! A summer evening at one of my favourite places, Lochan Mor in Rothiemurchus, otherwise known as the Lily Loch. Regular readers may notice that the loch and its […]
White Crocus
Crocus flower Its spring, we’re just past the equinox, the sun is warm (if you’re in the shelter away from the biting wind!) and its time for a crocus image. These wee flowers are so cheery after a long Scottish winter 🙂 I watched the Channel 4 documentary programme ‘Live from Space‘ – broadcast live […]
Water Lily
Water Lily, Lochan Mor, Strathspey Water Lilies grow in around 1 metre depth which, since I don’t have a high telephoto lens, necessitates getting wet to get closer to them, a potentially risky business whilst holding an expensive camera, ignoring the midges, and hoping not to slip… Its also hard to stay in focus as […]

High up on the hills on my skis, on a perfect surface of hoar-frost crystals sparkling in the intense sunshine – a perfect winter’s day. “We are like islands in the sea, separate on the […]
Waterlily
At Lochan Mor (otherwise known as The Lily Loch), Rothiemurchus, Strathspey. The water lilies are out again – it seems a little early. Once again the photographer ventured in as far as he could – water and fancy lenses don’t mix too well! The lilies like to be in about 1 metre deep. Photographically speaking, […]
Wood Anenomes
Evening wood anenomes A spot of magical evening light in the wood anenome wood. Thankfully today is back to sunny spring, after a few days of rain, hail, snow and violent wind. Quite a few days of mad weather for us, maybe for you too? Have you noticed how, at the full moon, the weather […]
Wood Anenome
Wooden Enemies The birch woods are full of them – a carpet of Wood Anenomes sparkling in marvellous spring sunshine. The first birch leaves are almost out, giving the bronze winter birches a coppery effect. “Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, sufi, or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am […]
Snowdrop

For the gardeners amongst you, the Ground Elder has popped its first shoots, full of life… “If you have arrived at the point were you can […]
