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

Almost Black & White

All of my B&W images are conversions from colour, a few are new and some are old images I have dragged out again to give a bit of a facelift
BEAM ME UP SCOTTIE
This one was taken at Ruthven Barracks way back in 2008 not very well exposed so I just played around and added a filter











SWEET PEA
Not sure garden flowers lend themselves to this treatment, this must be one of my very first efforts, looking at it now it could do with a little of the noise taken out









 Eilean Donan and The Skye Bridge Taken back in Oct 2007
The bridge is a particular favorite of mine and this is it in its latest guise
a recent facelift

Anstruther Harbour
Taken July 2010, I think I was going through my "Frame It" stage
Although I do think this works quite well

Both of these were taken with my little 10year old Fuji Compact in the last couple of years

Marmion Cottage beside Leithen Water
Think I have over egged the pudding on this one
