A snowdrop at #pitmeddengardens is my entry this week for #sharemondays2026 and #FSprintmonday

A slipper orchid (paphiopedilum) in Glasgow Botanical Gardens is my entry for #sharemondays2026 FSprintmonday

Walk the same selection of routes everyday with the 🐕. Normally, I stick to roughly the same compositions from interesting scenes, but occasionally all the elements align and something new appears. Light, mist and a lone tree before a majestic sky is my #sharemondays2026 entry #fsprintmonday

Aberdeen Art Gallery roof is my #sharemondays2026 entry for this week

Rishan from my now cancelled Journeys project. She escaped religious persecution in Eritrea and travelled across the Sahara and through Libya aged only 15, eventually making it to Kent. She has now qualified as an NHS nurse to give something back to the country which gave her sanctuary.

Aberdeenshire was a whiteout this week. Most of my images, many of which are still in camera, lack colour. My #sharemondays2026 image for this week is one of a few with some subtle colour. #FSprintmonday

Frosty Mornings

Last month I was bemoaning the lack of subjects on Aberdeen Art Gallery stairs. Thankfully, festive footfall gave me a lot more choice this month. Seasonal joy to everyone for the festive period. #sharemondays2025 #FSprinmonday

Peopling in 2025

Lanzarote in mono

An eruption of Velvet Shank, high up on an old elm about 40m from the house, meant I didn’t need to squat to get this weeks #sharemondays2025 entry. FSprintmonday

Early morning shadow figures

Colour or mono?

Memories of Lanzarote

Costa Teguise waterscapes

Still leafing through Autumnal images

Temple Hall, built in Dundee in the 1950’s, lying grounded in a bay at Arracife, Lanzarote. Look for Barco Telamon.

Just back from a family holiday to Lanzarote. My eldest son, one of four generations in attendance is my #sharemondays2025 entry for this week. #FSprintmonday

Not the best quality, but it’s the best I could muster in a chaotic week. A quick roadside stop at my favourite lone tree in rural Aberdeenshire. #sharemondays2025 #FSprintmonday

Misty Autumnal images, Udny Estate.

Lovely yellows from Udny Estate And Pitmedden Gardens

Aberdeen Art Gallery staircase ICM is my #sharemondays2025 entry this week. Waited ages( about 3 minutes - no patience) for an interesting subject to no avail.

A revisit to Berlin June 25

Russet colour set

Lots of lovely mist in the last week provided different compositions on the usual dog walking routes. #sharemondays2025 #FSprintmonday

Autumnal squares

Foggy conditions in the last few days have provided opportunities for some interesting images

Light flickering off the foamy sea in Collieston harbour is my dark post storm Benjamin and dark Halloween image for #sharemondays2025 #FSprintmonday PS should probably have gone for one of the long exposures that were the real reason for the trip. 😉
