love this place

 


Tis a fine place this Bhaltos. Great to visit but perhaps less good to live there. Having said I and Gwyneth do know someone who has come from the mainland and build a house there.

Give it a year or two and come and visit. Not next year as the press are saying these rocks we live on are the location to visit in the next while and it may well be heaving.

Harman

 



Harman photo who make Ilford and Kentmere films also make a colour film. I had to try it. I shall not be doing that again too often. It all works out too expensive and does not do it for me.

I was using the Perkeo while away. it's small and has a nice lens but a hopeless operator.

awake

 



Recently had a visit from an old friend from the mainland. Mrs OOK came and we revisited places Gwyneth and her late husband Vic  had previously been. Here's Gwyneth going up to the sculpture on Bhaltos peninsula the other day. Twas lovely.

Now she's gone home the weather has closed in - wind and rain.

calendar

I've been thinking - hence the lack of posts. Had to take a rest to recover and everything. Now I have emerged I have decided that this year i shall make a calendar using one of the online places. Have done a few previously but none in recent years. 

My image "collection" will come into this,. Images from the last how ever many years of files I have on hard discs but taken on film. Who knows, I might even like the finished article.

The above image was taken o'er on the mainland recently on what one could say was a typical Scottish day.

Hassie stuff

 


I used the Hassie while away but didn't find much that inspired me. 

This is where nessie hunter is. Lovely spot I must say
