Day out at New Lanark.

New Lanark World Heritage Site, a beautifully restored 18th century cotton mill village in Southern Scotland, close to the Falls of Clyde.

The village first rose to fame when Robert Owen was mill manager from 1800-1825. Owen transformed life in New Lanark with ideas and opportunities which were at least a hundred years ahead of their time. Child labour and corporal punishment were abolished, and villagers were provided with decent homes, schools and evening classes, free health care, and affordable food.

At New Lanark.

Mainly converted fishers' cottages in Clachnaharry on the Beauly Firth just outside Inverness. At sunset the golden light makes that place enchanting. More of my images may be viewed by clicking here.

As you can see I was hunting on the Serengeti this morning, just looking for something to shoot (with my camera), came across these two little Leopards who were non to happy to see me... Took my photo and then I was out of there

My poor beautiful little camera isn't very well today. I think she may have a terminal condition. I think I must have over-worked her :( Here is one of the last photos I took with her before she broke down!.
