1. Mmm looks familiar, great shot Scott.

   1. I imagine it looks very familiar – was my first time at this spot and sense lots of potential – keep watching and welcome home – Scott

2. Your photo makes these power utilities look so magical, Scott. I also hope that the future is positive for jobs in the area.

   1. Agreed Sylvia – enough gloom and doom – lets vote for positivity

3. This beautiful picture made me think of the IronAge stilt dwellings as seen near Aberfeldy http://www.crannog.co.uk/ How recognisable this ultra modern version would be to those Ancestors!

   1. thanks for this I had seen pictures but was unsure of the location – I had added it to my to do list

4. This is great image… I loved it, and also I love this time of day, between night and day… Thank you dear Scott, love, nia

   1. Nia, you are right it is a great time of day the transition – it was getting really cold too

5. No idea why but this somehow makes me think of…tadaa – Christmas! There is something about the combination of lights and the almost surreal blueness… What I am trying to say is – BEAUTIFUL, Scott 🙂

   1. Christmas – Christmas – can we get through Autumn first grrrr

      1. 🙂

6. Not like you to post an industrial image, but I like it. Industry is an integral part of human society and photographically and artistically can provide an interesting contrast to the natural landscapes they sit in. We have to live with it and may as well see what beauty can be found in it.

   1. no it’s not but as I said to David above we are not really surrounded by it. Aberdeen Harbour is probably the closest to mind – anyway I liked the whole area and have a few plans for the future – lets see what comes next.

7. I do hope the recovery is real. This is a super night shot. Love the contrast of the cool and warm colours.

   1. me too – this has been a hugely challenging period for just about everyone – on the other hand it was borne out of the excess spending of many nations – effectively living beyond their means – I am sure we have learned our lesson. A 80s star filter may have been fun here

8. Were you really on a Fungi Foray? Cromarty one of my favourite spots, great village.

   I wish more folk took the time to explore the Industrial Landscape (Seascape) then we would have more great shots like yours.

   1. One is guilty of digressing – going a little off piste – I have shot quite a few buildings/architecture but never really spent a huge amount of time exploring industrial scenes – always fancied the refinery at Grangemouth which is some sight day or night – and some part of Glasgow’s industrial past but that’s for the future

      1. All the great artists favoured industrial settings. Follow in their footsteps!

9. I love this Scott, I think rigs are beautiful as well as practical. The little lights against the inky sky make it feel all the more magical.

   1. Yes I agree , this my second rig shit the first was a ling kens from cromarty in winter withseveral all grouped together, I would love to get closer in to do some shape n texture shots but thats parked until I can propperly apply my time. Great to see the yard busy and a regular flow of rigs downbthe Firth

10. An image of hope, perhaps?

    1. Yes I like that view – hope is good hope is positive

11. Great atmosphere to this, Scott 🙂

    1. Yes the boat onbthe right returned to port as I waited for dusk but not darkness, I will return here under moonlight I think
