This is Ullapool in Scotland on a very misty morning, I let the atmosphere speak for itself! taken of Fujichrome slide film and scanned in PS. this is the original version!
This was taken from the coach by Louize as we were heading down the mountain to get that ferry to cruise down the river Clyde in Scotland, and what a stunning view and atmosphere!
Brightly coloured fresh female nectaring on brambles in the late afternoon sunshine at Arnside Knott in Cumbria (UK) (7886) - the only female spotted in three visits to the site in the last week of July, so possibly the first of the season at Arnside. Females typically appear about a week after the males take to the wing.

A pristine, bright female basking on the bracken between downpours on Arnside Knott in Cumbria (UK) (9834). An English rarity, occurring at only two sites south of the border!
An early season female showing off her bright eye-spots in the late afternoon sunshine at Arnside Knott in Cumbria (UK) (7802) - a beautiful 'brown velvet' colouration when fresh, but they rapidly become scratched and tatty within a few days!

Basking on bracken during a cloudy spell at Arnside Knot in Cumbria back in early August (UK) (6136)
The morning mist turned into the afternoon mist as there was no wind and the sun struggled to break through.
The River Clyde on a misty March morning. HDR from 3 images, which I've then texturised to make less obvious and more atmospheric.
I count myself as someone who has been very fortunate over the years, for one thing, I was born in Scotland and I have developed a passion for capturing some stunning locations and preferably the ones that are hidden gems instead of the more well know locations. This picture was actually shot on the beach at Ardrossan, but it was not shot on the more well known part of the south beach with its mile long stretch of golden sand. This one was shot at the most northerly part of the south beach where these volcanic rocks can be seen when the tide is at a low ebb. Ayrshire has many hidden gems and this one is one of my favourites.
I don't see Scotch Broom very often here but apparently it's a must-have plant in the garden this year as they sold lots of them at the gardening exhibition I visited last weekend.
