Dryburgh Abbey Ruins

Dryburgh Abbey

Whilst out photographing the Borders Rail Project on a particularly lovely late summers day I captured the impressive ruins of Dryburgh Abbey. Final resting place of Sir Walter Scott and Earl Haig among others. 

Stonehaven Basking in sunshine

Whilst on a recent aerial sortie to Aberdeen I captured this image of Stonehaven with people enjoying the summer sunshine on the beach . Could almost be somewhere in Greece ! 

Blackness Castle - the "ship"

Described as "the ship that never sails" I captured Blackness Castle on a recent sortie in the Firth of Forth. Its not hard to see why it was described in this manner !

Forth Bridge first sections "launched"

This recent view of the "launch " area at Echline clearly show the first two sections in position. These sections will be gradually pushed out towards the central tower in a remarkable feat of engineering. 

Tugs hard at work

Whilst out flying on a recent sortie over the Forth I caught this image of one of the bigger tankers to visit the Hound Point Oil Terminal  being moved into position by tugs.
