Another archive image from Scotland's border country, Taken from on top of one of the sea walls pointing out into the choppy waters of the North Sea at St Abbs!

The remains of Dunbar Castle through an arch in Dunbar Battery! Dunbar Castle is a historic ruined fortress located in the coastal town of Dunbar, East Lothian, on the southeast coast of Scotland. Perched dramatically on a rocky promontory overlooking the town's harbour (Victoria Harbour), it was once one of the most powerful and strategically important strongholds in Scotland. Detail does benefit from a large view, HBM to all!

A glimpse of the beach and the North Sea, Cocklawburn Beach, Berwick on Tweed, Northumberland, England. Large view perhaps! (10)

A shot from the Scottish Borders, discovered in the archives. Originally called Coldingham Shore, the village adopted the name St Abbs in the 1890s, inspired by nearby St Abb's Head—a rocky promontory named after the 7th-century saint Æbbe (or Ebba), who founded a monastery there around 635 AD.Today, St Abbs remains a working fishing community but thrives on tourism. It's especially popular for:Coastal walks — The St Abb's Head National Nature Reserve (managed by the National Trust for Scotland) offers breathtaking cliff-top trails with seabird colonies (like puffins, guillemots, and kittiwakes in season), wild scenery, and a lighthouse. This was taken from the Slipway of the St Abbs Independent Lifeboat A lifeboat service has been present in St Abbs since 1911, established after the tragic wreck of the Danish steamer Alfred Erlandsen in 1907, where all 17 crew members were lost due to delays in rescue efforts from nearby stations. Originally operated by the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution), the station was closed by them on September 8, 2015, after 104 years, despite local campaigns to keep it open. The community responded strongly, and with significant support—including a major donation from local company Tunnock's (the famous Scottish biscuit makers)—the service was relaunched as an independent operation. The current inshore lifeboat is named Thomas Tunnock in honor of that support, and it's noted as one of the fastest in the UK, capable of speeds up to 40 knots.

Just one of my many images from one of Scotland's most iconic and photographed landmarks, perched dramatically on a small tidal island in the western Highlands. It sits at the confluence of three stunning sea lochs: Loch Duich, Loch Long, and Loch Alsh, near the village of Dornie and not far from Kyle of Lochalsh. The castle's picturesque setting, with misty mountains and often dramatic skies, makes it a favorite for visitors heading toward the Isle of Skye (it's just a short drive from the Skye Bridge). I hope the very soft light and background mist gives this image a unique feel! HFF and a nice second half of the week,,,,,,, a large view may be rewarding!

A bench for after the tasting? HBM (hic) It is widely recognized as Scotland's oldest working distillery, with origins tracing back to 1763 (though some records of illicit distilling on the site date even earlier to the 1700s). Located in a picturesque glen just northwest of Crieff in Perthshire, in the Highland region, it sits on the banks of the Turret River and draws its pure water from Loch Turret. ( a hint of moonshine)

An image looking west of Loch Leven and the Ballachulish Bridge from 2016, Captured from the local boat club. The distant mountains re across Loch Linnhe on the Ardnamurchan Peninsula! Loch Leven is a stunning sea loch (inlet of the sea) in the Scottish Highlands, closely associated with the dramatic landscapes of Glencoe. Located on the west coast of Scotland, it stretches about 8¾ miles (14.1 km) long, with widths varying from around 200 meters to over 1.6 km. It connects to Loch Linnhe at its western end near North Ballachulish. HFF and a nice weekend to all!,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Large may be good!
