Golf on the Isle of Arran, Scotland

Blackwaterfoot, Isle of Arran, Scotland.

Well it could be, except I don't think Felicity's restaurant and tea room existed back then?

Just couldn't resist taking this image this morning whist enjoying our coffee and fresh cream scone sitting on the terrace. A young chap enjoying perhaps his first taste of the splendid game, and horses off down the beach bathed in the welcomed sunshine of the day. A tweak or two in the appropriate software and this 2014 picture is transformed back in time.

Machrie Stones with Aerial Drone Camera

Machrie Standing Stones, Arran, Scotland

Machrie Moor, on the west coast of the Isle of Arran, is the site of a number of neolithic structures dating back up to 4500 years ago. These include the six Machrie Moor Stone Circles, and the Moss Farm Road Stone Circles. The standing stones were dated back to approximately 2500 years ago but excavations in the 1980s uncovered elaborate timber structures and stone circles which dated back even further in history.

The beautiful sunshine, which until shortly before had bathed the location with late afternoon warmth, dipped behind clouds forming over Kintyre and my enthusiasm for the flight cooled somewhat. A family arrived, and not wishing to disturb their experience I sat quietly with drone resting on the grass, A conversation began and they clearly were up for seeing it fly, so up it went! On a better day I shall return.

Time for Scrabble on Arran Beach

Beautiful summer evenings have just got to be taken advantage of, especially when you live (or holiday) on the wonderful Scottish Island of Arran. So, with our youngest son visiting from Edinburgh a spontaneous picnic became the order of the day on Blackwaterfoot Beach, here on the south west of the isle. This picture was taken nearing 9.30pm with warmth and gorgeous light still in abundance. Strangely we were the only ones to be soaking up these late summer rays. Modesty prevents me from announcing who won the game!
