The red roof
by Clive Griffiths

Hello all. Just back from a very wet week on the Isle of Skye. I was hoping the weather would be like this, but it wasn't. Expect a few mean and moody B&W shots to follow...

This is the famous red roofed cottage on the shores of Loch Torridon - but it wasn't taken this year....

Wreck
by Clive Griffiths

This is the wreck of the fishing vessel Dayspring, lying in shallow water at Diabaig on the West Coast of Scotland.
When I first saw this boat many years ago it was a state, but reasonably intact. Over the years I have seen it crumble - a metaphor for many things perhaps... I took this back in 2015, so it could well have broken up completely by now.
I originally posted this as a B&W, but was never entirely happy with it. I think I need a lesson from the Prince of Darkness himself!

Thanks to everyone who called by, in particular to those who faved and commented - much appreciated!
