I had a delightful weekend in Thurso with the Bon Accord Camera Club, exploring various scenic locations. The trip included visits to Bettyhill, Portskerra Harbour, Melvich Beach, and several sites on Day 2 despite challenging weather.

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 …
