I am just an enthusiastic photographer living in the beautiful Scottish Borders, where I simply enjoy my hobby photographing the countryside.Most of my images are taken in and around the Tweed Valley, sometimes venturing out to explore other beautiful parts of Scotland and over the Border south on rare occasions

Hints & Tints of Autumn, Fungi & Fairy Rings

A walk along the Tweed from the Toll Wood
One of those blustery days that promises rain
Luckily we were out and back before the downpour

Edinburgh Butterfly Farm

Set off over the Granites 
Up onto the A7 and down towards Dalkieth and to
Edinburgh's Butterfly and Insect World
at Dobbies Garden World

The Tree Nymph seemed to be the most prolific of the butterflies, they were everywhere

Close to Home


Close to Home
As is usual I don't have to wander far to find something of interest I really am lucky to live here
Set off down "The Batty" it's just a strip of land with old pine trees  on it and where Leithen Water runs into the River Tweed
        
After a misty morning cobwebs covered in dew festoon the grasses and hedgerows

  
Sun shining in through the trees lighting up the feathery heads of the Rose Bay Willow Herb
