Thanks, Windshadow. I like your images, especially the one of the spider legs--I think they're spider legs!? The eye and the spider legs would look good next to each other. Kind of like a visual poem.

NeoDude,

WOW!!!!!!! These photos are gorgeous!! I leave for Scotland in two more days and in seeing your photos, I'm not sure I can wait. It is obvious that your country is incredibly beautiful and it is also obvious that you are a fantastic photographer. Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful shots!

Hi mate

I'm sorry I haven't been around to help you out much :(


If I were you I'd spend an hour or two looking over the undiscovered Scotland site.

If you know your gonna be in a certain area then think about places to visit enroute.

Remember Scotland size wise is fairly small so you'll get loads in in a day if you put your mind to it :)

I hope you have a great time Buddy :D

Scottie,

I'm taking my laptop with me, but I'm not sure that I will have internet access where I am going. If I go near Delmeny, I'll e-mail you. In the meantime, I want to thank you for all help you have given me! Btw, what exactly is BuGGbairn Earth?

The castle is open to visitors and is drenched in turbulent history.

:lol: :lol: Buggbairn Earth is blatantly ripping off Google Earth and rebranding it in Photoshopo :lol:

You'll find plenty of good roadmaps & Tourist guides when you get here, If you spend a day in Glasgow City Center when you get here look out for a bookstore in Buchanan Street Called "Borders" I was in there last week and it has a great selection of guide books for Scotland. Otherweise any good bookstore will have something that will help you out :)

Don't worry about the Lunch and Pint thing, I was just pulling your leg :lol: I'm not sure how happy my bosses would be if I were to take off during a shift for lunch and a beer, thanks anyway though.

Have fun :D

You'd have to meet him to understand. Meanwhile, I'd just copy all the photos here and save yourself a fortune. They paint Scotland in a very good light.
