Lochan, glassy still, mountain, burnished golden moorland, island, Scots Pine, Wild Rosehip, Gorse and Silver Birch. Quintessential Highland icons wrapped in Autumn colours. Loch a Mhuillidh, Strathfarrar, Inverness-shire, Scotland.

Poem.

 

Quintessentially Scotland, wrapped in a burnt amber autumnal cloak.

Lochan islet overarched by the noble, native Scots Pine.

Rosehips, gorse and sapling silver birch frame a breathless stillness and combine to form the archetypal landscape of Caledonia.

A perfect moment of utter calm where time ceases and beauty overwhelms.

How rare.

How special.

How therapeutic

to mind, body and soul.
