Following our workshop in the South of England, Dianne and I hired a car and set off north to Scotland via Wales and the East coast of England. We set off in fine, sunny weather, but part way through Wales things turned damp and cool, gradually deteriorating to wet and cold as we headed North into Scotland. This change in the weather made walking unpleasant, but the dramatic skies, fog and wet landscape sure made for some great photographs.

Oh my gosh, John, such stunning photos! Love them all and can imagine some superb paintings coming from some of these. The scenes are so dark and brooding, but so atmospheric. Thanks for sharing them. Fiona x
I live here. You got it just right. Although we had a real Sumner for the first time in a long time. It was beautiful then too. Haste he back.
Thanks for sharing, Scotland is a beautiful, atmospheric paradise, and I would love to get back there someday!

Lovely photos… Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely fabulous photos – with such interesting perspectives. Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay were annual family favourites for holidays in my childhood.
