Journey with me,
through these photos,
to some of my favourite
places in Scotland
The larger images were shot in Summer 2005, using a Pentax Optio SV digital camera. The older, smaller images were originated on 35mm film with a Minolta AF-Z camera and scanned to CD-ROM. They have all been slightly reduced in quality from the originals, in order to facilitate speedier downloads, but have not been enhanced.
