I enjoy travelling, though for various reasons most of my travelling has been done inside Britain. In Scotland, most of my journeying has been in the highlands. Some of the time I carried a camera; some of he time I didn't. Some of the time the photos I took were slides, which haven't been transferred to the computer as yet. This is a small selection of photos from my Scottish album; it gives a small taste of the country as well as reflecting my interest in animals. |

I've been to England a few times, but don't have good photos of many of the places I visited. Most of my visits to Wales were to the Gower Peninsula, where a good friend lives. |

I've only been once to Northern Ireland, and that was just for the weekend. |

In the early morning I often see planes going or coming from America. And one morning I was on one of them... Just a few photos from my holiday touring California and Arizona. |

Over the years I've taken a fair number of photos of animals and birds. Sometimes it's been easy - but often it's been a case of being in the right place at the right time. |

Sometimes I think the beauty of Argyll is overshadowed by that of the counties further north - certainly when I was younger I underestimated Argyll's appeal, but I now realise how wrong I was. |

When water is completely still, the reflections are fantastic. And especially in early morning and late evening, against the rising or setting sun, silhouettes can be very effective. |

I've always been interested in the neolithic world, and Orkney offers a wide sample of neolithic sites, including Skara Brae, one of the finest examples of a neolithic village anywhere - which accounts for its status as a world heritage centre. However, it was not until April of 2004 that I finally visited Mainland Orkney and spent three days visiting a cross-section of its treasures. |
