TOZ has posted:

Each year, for one week mid-August, hundreds of scarecrows holiday in the delightful Dales village of Kettlewell. Human visitors try to find them all, solving clues and puzzles as they hunt. The Kettlewell Scarecrow Festival is a great way for the whole family to discover this lovely village in Wharfedale and has now been running for nearly 30 years.

Sitting in the square having a coffee at the Italian restaurant, best coffee in town BTW, this was the view that we were looking at. Taken about half an hour later, the PiP shows that the BBC was in town. There was an important looking photographer taking a movie of the 'goings on', luckily he was facing away from us, so we won't be on the Midland News. ;-))))

The mapping is inaccurate, but it gives you some idea of the layout of the town. You should be able to find The Square by enlarging the photo.

Taken in Chichester, West Sussex for World Photography Day 2026.

This was the first significant rainfall we've had in around 2 months, but I wasn't going to let getting wet stop me from taking a photo today, so I thought I'd indulge myself in a little street photography.

HWW ~ Kinloch Castle, Rum

After landing at Kinloch on the Small Island of Rum, we head directly to the most imposing structure on this otherwise mostly barren Island. We were allowed to walk directly past the front of this, between the fence and walls, only passing 1-3 meters from the windows and being able to climb the front steps to the door. We saw that it still looked fully furnished with old ornaments and pictures now covered in sheets and cobwebs. Such a shame.
This a Category A listed Edwardian mansion. Built between 1897 and 1900 as a luxury hunting lodge for the wealthy industrialist Sir George Bullough, it is constructed from distinctive red Rùm sandstone. It is Edwardian gothic/baronial in style and features ornate turrets, battlements, and lavish original interiors including a sprung-floor ballroom. It is now owned by the public nature agency NatureScot, the vacant building has required major structural preservation and has been put up for sale or restorative in recent years
See PiP’s for close look at the entrance and one of the corners.

Enjoy full screen and have a good day.

The Old Post Office !

Roger (Grisly) has posted:

Plockton is a village in the Lochalsh, Wester Ross area of the Scottish Highlands with a 2020 population of 468. Plockton settlement is on the shores of Loch Carron. It faces east, away from the prevailing winds; this, together with the North Atlantic Drift, gives it a mild climate despite the far-north latitude, allowing the Cordyline australis cabbage tree to prosper.

The single story building on the shores of Loch Carron was originally the Old Post Office, It is now secured for the community who open the shop daily from 9 to 10am offering a range of newspapers for residents and visitors.

HWW and a large view perhaps!

The approach to Rum

Herb Riddle has posted:

As our ferry approaches the Small Island of Rum we get to see a great view of its two rugged peaks; Askival (left) and Hallival (right) . This is part of the Rum Cuillin ridge, situated within the Inner Hebrides off the west coast of the Scottish Highlands.

Askival: Rising to 812 meters (2,664 ft), it is the highest peak on the Isle of Rùm and a prominent Corbett characterized by its sharp, conical profile.
Hallival: Positioned immediately adjacent to the east, recognizable by its broad, stepped ridge formed from ancient layered igneous rock intrusions.
