That fantastic city again, nothing quite like a bit of moody sky to get excited about the view of the castle and fountain from the park.
Ross Fountain and Edinburgh castle with the beginnings of a sunset kicking in.
Simply awesome by images@twiston
Meanwhile in Queensferry:
The air sea rescue helicopter pilot notices a wasp in the cockpit.
Tis the season to be jolly..
Great watching the new flock of baby bunnies on the drive.
So cute and playful as they reach for the tastiest bit of holly.
Also Introducing the rare bunny noir - the Black Bunny of Scotland
Anyone fancy a baby Snowy Owl ?
They look so cute and fluffy but you wouldn't want to be a mouse or a vole anywhere near it
A surprise sunset last night, some tall grasses came in handy for an arty shot
A freshly felled tiny mushroom in the front garden catches the sun
A little experiment on my phone:
Capturing the midgies swirling in a beam of sunlight on the drive.
Natural light (no flash) and no idea what focal length to set for micro close ups as they dance within the 2 foot beam of sun, coupled with a fast exposure to hopefully capture them as sharp as possible.
An old sunrise shot of Edinburgh from the Botanical Gardens, I cleared out some phone space and came across it, thought you'd like to see it
Castles of Northumberland
Two of the iconic castles on the coast (there are several others too).
Bamburgh and Warkworth castles, homes of various Scottish and English kings and Dukes of Northumberland and senior nobility since the 12th/13th centuries (much earlier for Bamburgh, which today is owned by the Armstrong's (of Cragside fame))
'Get a Room !'
Come on guys, my shin isn't the place for this surely
Hiding in the shadows
Little dandelion-esque flowers in the dark woods
I believe these flowers may be called 'Cats Ear' but I'm not sure
Well hello there
Nice little surprise on the trail cam, a wee doe checking out my kit.
I usually strap the camera near the ground for badgers, foxes and bunnies but placed it chest high to see what happened

Another of the amazing damselfly shots at the local pond.
I went again yesterday but they've all vanished, the small window for breeding came and went
Stunning damselflies at the local pond
It's clearly that busy time of year for them

Pushing the phone cam's zoom to it's limit to catch the cute sight of the baby swan popping up to greet the world.
It's been years since we had cygnets so close to home.
