Some very strange waves on Loch Caolisport - appearing out of a flat-calm sea came some very energetic short-frequency waves creating a playground for a bunch of Eider ducks evidently enjoying playing on the crests, and dangerous enough for the Labrador to not want to try his luck swimming.

I took this object with Holga from another angle on the same day, but from LC-A, I got the different impression and feeling. When it comes to Holga, I went upstairs to take a photo of a wave swinger nearby, but in case of LC-A, I went downstairs and took it a little remotely. Interesting different impression !!!
Holga's photo is:
I can't say I have plenty of photographs of this species because they like to be elusive and many times, they just have a quick look at who's around and then just go a bit deeper. But, sometimes they like to have a show, like when there are good waves: who can say anything to that, it's like aqua fun! And so, good for me that I took many photos and, in particular, this one that I find really lovely.
Poppies: Wave is from the installation ‘Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red’ poppies and original concept by artist Paul Cummins and installation designed by Tom Piper – by Paul Cummins Ceramics Limited in conjunction with Historic Royal Palaces, originally at HM Tower of London 2014.
Poppies: Wave is a sweeping arch of bright red poppy heads suspended on towering stalks. This sculpture, and Weeping Window, by artist Paul Cummins and designer Tom Piper were initially conceived as the key dramatic sculptural elements in the installation ‘Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red’ at the Tower of London in the summer and autumn of 2014. Over the course of their time at the Tower, the two sculptures were gradually surrounded by a vast field of ceramic poppies, each one planted by a volunteer in memory of every British or Colonial life lost at the Front during the First World War. In their original setting they captured the public imagination and were visited by over five million people.
