Back in the day


 

back in the day  when I had the energy and drive to wet-print. A fine example of my ouvre - what ever that was.

Lamblets


 

From down on t'croft the other day. A selection of small bouncy beasts exploring an unfamiliar place.  Not sure what there were doing there to be honest but I snapped them up all the same.

South North Tolsta


 

There is such a place. There's also New Tolsta which is confusingly north of North Tolsta. Oh and Glen Tolsta which is south of north tolsta on the way in from Stornoway. Our "Man who does" lives there. The snap is of a part of the village I rarely visit but see often.

spring plumage


 

I caught The Crofter on his croft in his spring plumage. How lovely he looks in the early sunshine, grey hair glistening in the light.
There's order and calmness down there sometimes. The boy helper hadn't turned in, the childlings were at school and Mrs Crofter, a teacher was too.

horsey haar


 

Lovely haar all around the village and gone by the time you reach the  next village. Or else it's everywhere else but here. That's how it is.

two

 


There you are, Sam [right] and Tom. At the 'other' croft resting after planting trees and digging. 

We, that's when Eve and I came across them on a little bike ride so paused to pass the time of day.



There's Tom and Eve sat sitting and everything. I was snip snapping at this time and goodness knows what Sam was up to.
