A couple of frosty days December 2014

A couple of frosty days in South West Scotland

Sunday the 28th of December 2014

 I took a walk up to the mast above Barrhill Woods

Next Day

Monday the 29th of December

Ice on the car

I took a walk up a small hill.
It's a gem for views.

Craigdistant Hill Views

I hope my viewers enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Mist Rolling In From The Sea

Monday the 6th of February and the sun is shining.

I'll go out and take some pictures and video.

Driving up the Queensway into the Galloway Forest Park I'd noticed some mist coming in to the south.

I parked up and climbed Craigdistant Hill, just on the fringe of the forest.

To the north the Minnigaff Hills looked resplendent 

On my way up Craigdistant I could see the mist coming in 

I disturbed a few sheep, but they soon settled as I found a rock to perch on

To the south east stood Cairnsmore and Craignelder.

Craignelder's on the Rambler's summer programme with me as leader 

The sky's busy today

A wispy cloud drifts over Cairnsmore's lower slopes

Time to take a panorama

Panorama of Rolling Mist on CleVR.com

Over towards Newton Stewart the mist is rolling up the River Cree

I'm sitting on a nice dry rock as the sun shines, enjoying a cup of hot coffee

I got roughly forty five minutes of video footage, this is it speeded up to just over one minute.

Below me here it's rolling up the Palnure Burn and ..............

......................Bargaly Glen

Another shot looking over to Wigtown and the Machars.

Knock Fell to the west, although only a small hill always makes for a good landmark

Out in Wigtown Bay the mist seems to be building up on itself

After three quarters of an hour it's starting to push up the hills

It'll be up here with me soon, time to call it a day I guess

A noisy skein of geese heralded my leaving the hill

It's been a really enjoyable hour
