Innocent alone,

In the first warm light.

Gently underway.

Winter’s shadows fading.

New to the world.

Will you … ?

Can you … ?

Whispering to the woods,

Listening,

Wondering,

Watching.

Gently underway ...

I haven't been posting for a while because my laptop started to become unreliable, then the screen turned green, then it turned purple. I spent ages agonising over which laptop to replace it with before choosing the wrong one. The screen was lovely and bright but the colours were nowhere near accurate. I have a screen calibrator on Skye which hopefully will deal with the issue but we're still in South Lanarkshire.

I then decided to try to temporarily use an old Mac which I bought secondhand ages ago but had never used. There are many things I like about it but for photography it doesn't work the way I'm used to so I'm tearing my hair out. One of the many annoyances is that it won't allow me to save images I've worked on to Photos so I save them to Downloads, then after a few days they disappear completely. I've just come across these in Recents so I'm posting them before they disappear again!

Here is Durisdeer Church, an impressive building for such a small village.
