A Holiday in the Highlands

 
We decided last week to take a few days holiday in the Scottish Highlands to stay with my brother-in-law.  We had a lovely relaxing time following the two previous stressful weeks of moving house.  This is the view from their sitting room window - it's so wonderful and peaceful, just what we needed.
 

On one of the days we climbed up the hill to the Fyrish monument.  I found myself taking loads of photos, so here are just a few.
 



I love the shapes of the trees, particularly with the dappled sunlight coming through, and this lichen was the most beautiful shade of pale green; huge clumps of it everywhere.
I'll show you more photos tomorrow!

      Thanks, we had lovely weather too for most of the time. We'll go back up there again for New Year and hopefully lots of snow!
