Its all in the title. This isn’t just an ordinary Church Spire. I am told its a copy of the Spire at St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh. This is actually what I would consider the most prominant landmark in Peebles. Peebles is a small Scottish Borders Town which lies about 20 miles south west of Edinburgh. Its possibly my most popular image to date out here in the real world. Made the Redbubble Home Page on the 29th of August 2008. Many thanks & best wishes from Robin; that’s me!! / Milestone reached, 1000 views. Thank you all kindly; Mum & Dad too. Reached on the 2nd of Oct 2008 / As featured on the front cover of the Church of Scotland’s 2010 Diary. Many thanks for that honour. / 2000 hits reached 30/08/09, Think Catriona Hamilton was the person who reached that landmark which is pretty fitting as she’s from Peebles. / Also available as a Christmas Card!! / / /

Its some roadside Poppies. I saw these as I was driving along a country road last year & stopped to take a few pictures. They seem to Poppy up everywhere. Mind you the outside lane of the busy M725 is possibly not the best place to stop & take pictures. Its the only four lane motorway on the Island of Auchterchuchty. Which caused a lot of controversy with the locals when it was built. / The Island of Auchterchty is only two miles long & three miles wide at its respective widest points. The Islanders had applied for a grant to build a community Hall but this had been refused on the grounds that there wasn’t a suitable road infrastructure to deal with the increased traffic flow in the area. Instead funds were provided to fund the construction of the new Hyper Link Motorway. This would speed up the traffic flow from the Field on the west corner of the Island to the field in the north corner. All good & well but the only motorised vehicle on the island is the post ,masters moped & as your all aware mopeds are not allowed on motorways. The Chief Constable said if he caught the post master on the motorway he would have no choice but to revoke his driving licence. This in turn would have caused the Chief of Police huge problems as he is also the post master. In fact he’s the only resident on the island so you can see this would have put him at a great disadvantage. Daisy the only cow on the island still uses the bridal way to make the trip between the two fields & the Post master has handed in his notice in protest. If you ever get a chance to visit Auchterchuchty say hello & tell him Robin sent you. TTFN / / / /

Apparantly lady’s eardrops is another name for the lovely fuchsia.. which I find hard to do justice to … This is the barely hardy bush variety ‘Celia Smedley’ – it survives in scotland only by (us) taking its pot into a frostfree greenhouse over winter… height and spread 75cm..dainty single or semi-double flowers with greenish white tubes, pale pink sepals and red petals. Nikon D60 / NIkkor VR 18-200 lens / UV filter / f/5.6 / 1/250sec / ISO-200 / 130mm Thanks so much for looking.. Cheers / :))))

Suisinish is an abandoned village reached after a rough hour- long walk from Kilbride, near Torrin, Isle of Skye. / This old cottage is too modern to have been one of the dwellings where the folk were evicted to make way for the sheep, which were more profitable to the greedy landowners of the time. Many of the families were separated, and forced to emigrate to America, Canada, and Australia. / I cannot begin to feel their anguish. / There are many ruins scattered around the Brae (hillside), evidence of a thriving, close-knit community torn apart by human greed. Maybe this bulding was built early in the twentieth century, I have no idea and can find no information. / Back to the present….. / There was quite a wait for some usable light, a chilly fierce wind was blowing, rain was brewing, nothing new ! We sat in the shelter of one of those deserted ruins, eating a cheese piece, ( sandwich ) and a cheering cup of hot coffee from the thermos, reflecting on how ‘they’ lived then, compared to us nowadays, and watching the sheep that are now the only inhabitants of this beautiful place. / Rowan trees were planted in the belief they kept evil spirits away, and it is considered very bad luck to cut one down, even today ! This cottage is surrounded by them, I guess the magic didn’t work. A three shot HDR. CanonEOS 40D mounted on tripod, iso 100, auto wb, f22, RAW files converted in Photomatix, and touched up in Adobe CS3. / A little Orton also applied to ‘pop’ the texture of the stone. / A slight vignette added.

Standing above the village of Talisker, you get a tremendous view to the beautiful Cuillin mountains. / I got very lucky with the light here, on a day when the / sun and clouds were playing cat and mouse. Towards evening, the sun broke through long enough to capture the light falling on the village of Merkadale below. / Talisker is famous for the distillery where many visitors go to taste the Malt Whisky. / I confess to being a heathen…....I prefer a nice Cabernet Sauvignon !! Shot on my Canon EOS 50D, on tripod, polarising filter, iso 100, cloudy wb, f16, 1/25sec, – 1 exposure compensation to retain that dark moody sky, canon 17-85mm IS lens set at 85mm, RAW file processed in Camera Raw, then levels/curves/ selective colour/ in CS3. / Sharpened with Intellisharpen.

This is the Isle of Skye at it’s best, when there is a lot of colour in the landcsape, with the low sun we get this far North at this time of year, accentuating every detail. / This is the crofting community of Tarskavaig, with the glorious backdrop of the Cuillin Hills. / “Crofting” is small time farming, or “smallholding” where a few crops might be grown, and a small number of cattle or sheep kept. A single RAW file, shot on my Canon EOS 50D , polariser filter, f25, 1/2 sec, underexposed by 2/3 stop, iso 100, auto wb, processed in Adobe CR, then in CS3.

Kyleakin is the first village encountered on the Isle of Skye, when you cross over the bridge from Kyle of Lochalsh…....this is where the old Ferry boat used to land, which I don’t miss at all, romantic it might be, but darned inconvenient !! / The old ruin you can see behind the boats is Castle Moil…......a few facts for you….... “The 14th Century Castle Moil has had many names in its long history. Also known as Dun Akyn (Norse for Hakon’s Fort) and An Caisteal Maol in Gaelic, it is now a romantic ruin. Sited at the Skye end of the road bridge in the village of Kyleakin, the castle has Norse connections. Legend has it that a Norwegian princess, otherwise known as “Saucy Mary”, ordered a chain to be hung from the castle to the mainland so that no boat could pass without paying a tax.” / Nothing new under the sun then, eh ??!! LOL !! A three RAW HDR, shot on my Canon EOS 50D, polarising filter fitted, iso 100, f23, Auto WB, processed in Photomatix, then sprucing up in Adobe Photoshop CS3. / I used HDR because of the extreme light / shadow. http://www.redbubble.com/groups/the-women-photographer / AND / http://www.redbubble.com/groups/style-class-elegance MORE FROM MY ISLE OF SKYE SET…..
