It has been a great spring for photography. In Scotland and at home there have been some fun opportunities. This post represents some of my favorites which haven't appeared in other posts.
Scenic Scotland
 |
| A burn flowing from the Glencoe mountains in the Scottish Highlands. |
 |
| The road through a birch forest near Ballater, east of Aberdeen. |
 |
| The rolling hills of Perthshire, central Scotland. |
 |
| A thatch-roofed cottage on the Isle of Skye. |
People
 |
| Our Scottish niece, Ailsa, on Speech Day (similar to graduation day). |
 |
| This could be any shop in any country and the man sits waiting while the lady shops. Doesn't he look like Smiler from the TV show "Last of the Summer Wine"? |
 |
| The Throw. A participant in the heavy-weight-over-the-head throw contest at the Newport Highland Games. The weight is 56 pounds and it's thrown one-hands over a 13 foot bar. |
 |
| Japanese tourists on a rainy day in Edinburgh. |
 |
| A rainy day in Elgin, Scotland. |
The Birds and the Beasts
 |
| A peacock at Scone Palace, Scotland. |
 |
| Dragon fly at The Oregon Gardens, Silverton, Oregon. |
 |
| Discovered this Scottish robin sitting on the outside mirror of my car in the B&B parking lot. |
 |
| Swallow Tail butterfly at the Oregon Gardens. |
 |
| Saw this nasty critter one day on the lid of our recycle bin. He's about an inch and half long and didn't look friendly. Any ideas what he is? |
Fruit and Veg Displays--I may not eat all I should, but I like the displays.
 |
| House of Briar in the Scottish Highlands. |
 |
| A small shop in the Highlands near Banchory. |
 |
| Gloagburn Farm near Perth. |
 |
| It may not be fruit or veg, but this homemade bread bowl of beef stew was a great lunch at the Watermill in Blair Atholl. |
Flowers
 |
| A dahlia in our Canby back yard. |
 |
| The next three are all from the Oregon Garden in Silverton. |
Waterfalls
 |
| Queen Anne's Lace (I think) and Latourelle waterfall. |
 |
| Wahkeena Falls. Both Latourelle and Wahkeena are in the Columbia River Gorge. |
The Stones of Calanais (Callanish, Isle of Lewis, Outer Hebrides, Scotland).
 |
| Shadows |
 |
| Sunset |
Now comes your part: Tell me which photos you particularly like. I'm interested in which ones catch the most attention.
