A Walk in Long Shadows

A Walk in Long Shadows
An evening walk around the old Sunday School area at Castle Douglas. The evening light was beautiful and I loved the way the long shadows threw patterns across the fields. I have added three PiPs from along the way.

This is my kind of scenery, but I think you would need to have a heart of stone not to smile at the beauty , peace and tranquility of the landscape.

I have added a Fleetwood Mac song called 'Heart of Stone' as a tribute to the hugely talented Christine McVie. RIP Songbird

Oh No! I didn't know that Christine had passed away. Such sad, sad news. We'll never see the like of her again. A great choice of track and a most beautiful tribute, Carol.

A superb photo. Stunning light and love the play of shadows. Perfectly framed. Love the PiP's too.

Ecobird club has replied to Roger Bennion club
Thank you Roger. I was shocked and saddened when I saw the news on my newsfeed yesterday morning. You are right. She was so talented and will be badly missed, not only by those closest to her but by people the world over, many of whom have grown up with the music of Fleetwood Mac, and of course a lot of the songs were written by Christine so her legacy will live on

Wonderful, this is my kind of scenery, too. And even though I don't have a heart of stone, I like that song ;-)

Ecobird club has replied to Edna Edenkoben club
Thank you very much Edna. I am pleased you enjoyed the photos and the music. I am sure you don't have a heart of stone, - far from it!!

Aah Caroline - a great track. You know I nearly put 'Sleeping Around the Corner' on because we were literally staying around the corner! Whichever track I had chosen would not have felt like enough of a tribute. The world lost a great singer and songer in Christine this week.

HFF and have a good weekend

Edna Edenkoben club has replied to Ecobird club
...and thank you for believing in me (and my non-existent heart of stone) ;-))

I agree, Caroline is a great track and one of my favorites. Sleeping around the corner would have been a good one, too! And you're so right, once again the world lost a great singer :-(
R.I.P. Christine!

Thank you, Carol!

How lovely that you've added the tribute to Christine, I too am saddened by her death. What a voice!

Ecobird club has replied to MaggsMep club
Thank you very much Maggs.
Yes it is really sad. She was a great singer, songwriter and musician and whenever I thought of Fleetwood Mac I thought of her. I was surprised to find out she was 79, as in my head she was so much younger. Her legacy will, I am sure, live on in her words and music

HFF and have a good weekend, - hopefull fog free!!

Thank you very much George. I am pleased you liked the tribute to Christine. I was actually shocked, - in my head she was still young, and I guess in her music she will remain that way.
