Eilean Donan Castle, winter 2007
-
Romance depicting heroic or marvelous deeds, pageantry, romantic exploits etc Eilean Donan castle bathing in the early afternoon light _As one of the most iconic images of Scotland, Eilean Donan is recognised all around the world. Situated on an island at the point where three great sea lochs meet, and surrounded by some majestic scenery, it is little wonder that the castle is now one of the most important attractions in the Scottish highlands. Although first inhabited around the 6th century, the first fortified castle was built in the mid 13th century and stood guard over the lands of Kintail. Since then, at least four different versions of the castle have been built and re-built as the feudal history of Scotland unfolded through the centuries. Partially destroyed in a Jacobite uprising in 1719, Eilean Donan lay in ruins for the best part of 200 years until Lieutenant Colonel John MacRae-Gilstrap bought the island in 1911 and proceeded to restore the castle to its former glory. After 20 years of toil and labour the castle was re-opened in 1932_ / http://www.eileandonancastle.com/

Loch of the Lowes lies in the beautiful scottish borders between Moffat and Selkirk. It flows into nearby St Mary’s loch (with its thriving sailing club) past old Tibbieshiels inn, hostelry and overnight stop for walkers on the southern upland way crossing Scotland. Overlooking the north end of the loch is a monument to James Hogg – the Scottish Poet known as the Ettrick Shepherd, friend and contemporary of Sir Walter Scott. Taken 4/3/08 (untouched) (there is a 2nd loch of the lowes further north in Perthshire, complete with osprey viewing centre – but you can see the wonderful fish eagle hunting here too if you are lucky!)

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 landmarks 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 / / / /

Mist hangs in the valley over the beautiful river tweed outside peebles in the lovely scottish borders where sheep seem glad to greet the warmth of the dawn… I’ve been struggling to capture something to post in the wonderful shots in the fog group – check out the awesome quality and amazing variety of images there ...

Caught ‘up the sware’ (a local viewpoint) at dawn yesterday ( 23/9/08) as the sun rose over the tweed valley just outside Peebles, scottish borders. An especially heartwarming sight after the wet grey summer we’ve had … and it’s straight from camera, untouched. Olympus SP560 – aperture priority- f4.5, ISO 50 ;))) See also mist in the valley taken at the same time ! and also front row seat cheers all / ding / :))

Concept by Gregoryno6, everything else by me, except that bit by a certain Mr. Shakespeare. When shall we three meet again? / In thunder, lightning or in rain? / When the hurlyburly’s done / When the battle’s lost and won / That will be ere the set of the sun / Where the place? / Upon the heath / There to meet with / Macbeth

A big thank you to the ever so talented writer Nicole Ryan for writing An itch in time. Her delightful words go with these images so nicely. / An itch in time There were parts of me / she could never touch / those pieces / he would never rush / slow growing / behind fences / and faces / different times / small spaces / our places; filled with / lucid lines / dreams of sensored spines / and yesterdays that lingered. The edges were laced / with prickly hearts / sad endings / powdered darts / simple starts / enough to keep it safe / enough to chew and waste / those pieces of ourselves / that were better. You never wondered / I never counted / the amount of times that thistle stung / It doesn’t grow there anymore / we wouldn’t know where to explore / these things don’t exist / in my skin. We burnt it all with yesterday. / © ryan / These three images were shot on transparency film and the transparencies were manipulated further using a Daylab printer and Polaroid pull apart film where the film is pulled apart before a positive can be processed. The dyes remaining on the Polaroid film were then transferred by rolling onto blotting paper. This is a very unique technique as you will never be able to reproduce the same image twice. There will always be a different amount of dye remaining on the film each time you do it making each image different from the last. They are presented here as a series. / More works created using this technique can be found here

An acrylic on canvas. Portrait of a Medieval Girl, losely based on Mary Boleyn. 40×40 cm. (16” x 16”) I had already experimented with this image using Corel Painter, so thought it was about time I tried to paint it. Some of the stages, in case anyone is interested: /

Another view of Loch of the Lowes which lies in the beautiful scottish borders between Moffat and Selkirk. It flows into nearby St Mary’s loch (with its thriving sailing club) past old Tibbieshiels inn, hostelry and overnight stop for walkers on the southern upland way crossing Scotland. Overlooking the north end of the loch is a monument to James Hogg – the Scottish Poet known as the Etterick Shepherd, friend and contemporary of Sir Walter Scott. Taken 4/3/08 (untouched) (there is a 2nd loch of the lowes further north in Perthshire, complete with osprey viewing centre – but you can see the wonderful fish eagle hunting here too if you are lucky!) / See also ‘loch of the lowes’ and ‘i am a rock’ ‘LoL’

...kept falling on my lens.. so i had to crop this picture right down and I just loved what was left of this scene in the lovely border hills…

A spider wanders aimlessly within the warmth of a shadow / Not the regal creature of border caves / But the poor, misguided directionless / Familiar of some obscure scottish poet The mist crawls from the canal / Like some primordial phantom of romance / To curl, under a cascade of neon pollen / While i sit tied to the phone like an expectant father / Your carnation will rot in a vase from Bitter Suite. Lyrics by Fish http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=g8XXUE3lIgk

one particular harebell stood out for me on the border hillside on a lovely day when fellow bubblers Jen Whyte and Heather Croft and I went out to play… / :))

Water – the most precious resource on the planet – is something we so take for granted in Scotland… what so many people all over the globe would give for even this supply….... I soaked my entire jeans leg taking this as i was kneeling in the swampy run-off from the fields on the hillside above but only noticed later when the freezing march cold began to bite! It’s amazing to me that the sky and clouds can be seen reflected in the flow! Taken in Peebles, scottish borders, below Glen Tress, getting splashed! :) Slightly cropped to remove an annoying grass stalk but otherwise untouched.
