When the heavens align and the Sun shines in Aberdeenshire I like to try walk up hills, the most recent of which was a trip to Bennachie in mid January. Normally I’d use the back of Bennachie car park and route but as it’s closed for Forestry I had to actually go up the steep …
A few weeks ago Aberdeen hosted it’s famous SPECTRA light festival, I managed to go on two seperate days to see it. The walk there took me past the train station and the abandoned BT building both of which are always great street photography targets The first day I went was the opening Thursday going …
Beginnings There are many Gantt Chart Libraries out there, some good, some bad, many expensive. I came across https://github.com/MaTeMaTuK/gantt-task-react in several threads, and it was close to what I needed, but not quite perfect. I saw the potential, especially in how it rendered the Chart using SVGs, and decided I could add the necessary enhancements …
Happy Hogmanay! Happy New Year! Guten Rutsch ins Neue Jahr! Welcome to 2025, hope everyone has recovered from their hangovers by now. I’m in Germany for the New Year and went on the customary New Years Day Walk, and after 4 days of fog and no visibility the sun finally managed to come through and …
A belated happy winter solstice, the days are finally getting longer here in Aberdeen, and with a sunrise of 8:46 it’s high time in my opinion. I went to go see the sunrise, and enjoy a coffee down by the beach. Not many pictures as I just spent the time enjoying the view over the …
Duthie Park Winter Gardens, a true spectacle year round, but when it’s pouring with rain and freezing cold the warmth offered by the green houses makes the plants that bit more spectacular Going back to my roots and doing more street style stuff has been fun, especially when combined with discovering the really rather excellent …
Having just come back from the beach (see my previous post) I decided to go through my SD card and found a few pictures of when I went to see my sister in November and we went to the Christmas Market. This is gonna be a short post as I honestly didn’t take many pictures …
One of the things I love the most about living in the North East is the spectacular sunrises we get, overlooking the sea the sun rises over Aberdeen over Greyhope Bay where I went this morning with some friends who were up visiting. I may not be amazing at Portraits but every so often I …
As Autumn and winter settle down in the North East I took the opportunity to take a wander with a friend through the University of Aberdeen’s gorgeous campus, a place I called home for 4 years. This is the first time I’d been back since my graduation nearly a year and a half ago. And …
Day 3 started off bright and early, having to pack up our tent and go find the nearest garage / shop to get more oil for my car, and breakfast for me and my dad. We found oil, coffee, and breakfast at the tiny town of Kinlochewe. The next step was the absolutely gorgeous Inverewe …
Day 2 was one of the most anticipated days for me, visiting the Isle of Skye has been on my bucket list for a wee while at this point so even a very early wake up wasn’t enough to dampen my spirits. We started off by driving to Kyle of Lochalsh to get breakfast and …
I recently had the joy of doing the NC500 with my dad, we had been planning to do this for a few years, but finally all the stars aligned and we managed to organise things, I was meant to take the car with all our stuff, with my dad taking his bike from Germany, riding …
I’m writing this blog just as I’m about to head out for another driving lesson, having spent a lovely morning wandering around the Sunny ‘deen visiting shops new and old. Started my morning with a visit to the as ever fabulous Mr. Dun’s Barbers for a quick beard trim and my first coffee of the …
Decided to finally get a proper logo. So no more clip art logo for me. I’ll have more updates soon, just been very busy with work, driving lessons, and moving across the country, again. Thanks to my wonderful partner Eva for it. If you want to hire her for a logo you can find her …
With the passing of the Queen at Balmoral recently, she has now gone on her ‘Last Great Journey’ through Aberdeenshire, down to Edinburgh, and eventually down to London. Her procession passed close to where I’m now living so I decided to make a morning of it and go see her Majesty. The first stop was …
