Old Fisherman's Cottage for Rent - West Coast of Scotland
This imaginary rental cottage on the west coast of Scotland is a charming, rustic building, nestled amongst the rolling hills and rugged coastline of the Isle of Bute.
The cottage is fairly well-equipped with some modern amenities. It has a small kitchen at the back, as well as unheated outdoor bathroom facilities. There is also a compact bedroom upstairs, where guests can fall asleep to the haunting sound of the wind and waves crashing against the shore. Warm extra bedclothes can be provided at no extra charge.
This is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of modern life, a place where the stresses of daily life melt away, leaving only the wild forbidding landscape, the constant rain and the unrelenting swell of the sea.
Reduced rates for the winter months - September to May.
Imagined in Midjourney with additional work in Photoshop.

I wished I had photographed at this location when I was in the Badlands 3 years before, but it had rained and the ground was downright slippery. So, three years later, I went right to it. One prob though when I was scouting in daylight - I didn't have my compass. I'm worthless without my compass. So, when I returned after dark, I immediately could see I was way off the mark in terms of the direction of the Milky Way. Consequently I had to bumble around in the dark looking for compositions. Bumbling around amongst hoodoos and pinnacles is, for me, disorienting, and dropping breadcrumbs isn't gonna help me find my car when I'm finished. This wasn't my favorite composition in terms of my lighting - hard to get definition and texture in that uneven rock without causing unwanted black holes. BUT, this frame does have a swell meteor flashing through it. Maybe give it a click to view larger as the rock texture does show up a bit. I think I see my car out there in the low right corner too. 😉
A productive day on the Surrey & Norfolk coast yesterday. Very changeable weather conditions, which means I've come away with quite a range of images to share. A lot to get through, but thought I'd post this first, purely because it was straight forward to process. I managed to get a few locations in, and fortunately I had my preferred conditions for the sea front at Southwold. A good swell on the sea, bright light on the pier, and clouds behind, all combined to give me what I wanted for this image. There is a wider view, which I'll post in due course, but I’ve gone for the square crop first.

After a long summer the swells start to pick up out in the southern ocean and when they hit landfall it can get spectacular ,you just gotta be there.
This was a smaller swell, though I liked the symmetry and well defined smaller sprays as it hit the pier.

Waves breaking near shore in evening. This was after a storm when were still getting good sized swells and was almost completly dark. Altered from color version.
The good news, my MRi shows no shoulder impingement, bad news, got a considerable tear in my Rotator Cuff that needs fixing, conservative treatment not going to cut the mustard in this case! All my bloods and ob's are good so in on Monday for initially, endoscopic repair of a torn rotator cuff and then a few weeks of physio before I can consider cycling and basketball again........and now a little interlude, an Atlantic swell, Coverack, Cornwall
