The Pineapple


Beautiful NTS property The Pineapple. Lots of wildlife here including hares and spotted flycatchers. Here's some shots of the building itself:

Bo'ness, Thomas the Tank Engine and Blackness Castle


Whilst staying in the Falkirk area I took a day out in Bo'ness and came across a special event at the Bo'ness and Kinneil Steam Railway where Thomas and Friends had arrived at the station. Got some nice shots and sound recordings of the engines. Visited Blackness Castle after for a few quick shots.
