Favourite Photos of the month - in movement
October favourite:
Autumn is generous with us here, north of the Scottish Highlands. An abundance of eye catching colours intoxicate us in the forests and woods, moving the old in and around us.
Nethybridge, Cairngorms, Scotland, October 2011
November 2011 favourite:
Trees into darkness. The nights are getting really long here in the northern hemisphere. These fairy tree stems at the garden of Newbold House give away the wonder of winter.

December favourite:
Cow at Loch Fada at Skye. I love tracking between the brown, peat coloured hills of the HIghlands and the isle of Skye at the Scottish west coast. There are empty left farmhouses. In the middle of nowhere cattle crossing the road, gates open. The fresh water loch ‘Loch Fada’ in the near distance. Read more on the blog
Images made during the Harvest Festival at Autumn Equinox, with apples, bread and the Green Man.
With Samhain (around 31 October- 1 November) the Celtic New Year starts. In the ancient past this land with its long memory, Caledonia in Alba was being shaped by many Beings from the (now) invisible world, like the one-eyed giantess Cailleach. More about the Celtic Festivals (click) in the Wheel of the Year as seen by Adriana Sjan Bijman.
