Day one

Hi, I'm Nick and I wander about a bit, now and then. This blog is somewhere I can keep some of the pictures I take and spout on a bit about the places and the stuff.

This is more of a test post so there are only a couple of pictures. last summer i got home from work and fancied a walk on the West Highland Way. I only went as far as Drymen until I got some sort of annoying pain in my thigh so I binned it, stayed at the terrific Drymen Inn before heading home. Not a great day but the views up towards Ben Lomond were really starting to improve.

I noticed this sign up a tree in the Mugdock Woods just north of Milngavie:

I didn't notice any but I wouldn't have eaten one if I did see it so I feel like I'd be safe through here.

The first views of Ben Lomond looking north started improve the generally dreary flat walking.

Did a little cropping and process in Lightroom.

As above with added sheep interest.

Took all these on my wee Canon S95 which is my preference when I'm hiking about. I don't like to carry a big pile of SLR kit when I'm up the hills or travelling.
