The Scroobious Pictures

February's subject is: Travel


Having had my knuckles quite properly rapped, I have now read, learnt and inwardly digested the rules!


Here are some pictures taken specially for Travel


My theme is: Going Nowhere

The higgeldy-piggeldy Transport Museum at Dromod

A little gateway to the big Atlantic silted with sand

The fishing fleet aground at low tide

At a standstill

The Scroobious Pictures - Wildlife & Nature

Sunset and smoke

I do love pictures - photos, drawings, paintings, the lot.

So, having heard via IsobelandCat's Blog (which I highly recommend!) of a new photo 'challenge', how could I resist?

I'm a few days late, as these pictures are for January's category.
Sorry about that.


The subject for January was 'Wildlife and Nature'
(It has been very difficult to limit myself to just 423 pictures.
Only kidding.
567 actually.)
I had better re-read the rules for next time. Maybe you're only allowed one picture.
(I'd probably have to drop out.)

I just hope no one is looking at this on some wide-screen desk-top because I had the unpleasant experience of doing that myself recently. Horror of horrors - all the pictures were bleeding into each other, over the edge and it all looked like the proverbial train-wreck.
All I can say is, everything is ship-shape and Bristol-fashion when it leaves my laptop!

Nature first

Seashore 'pavement'

Cummeen Strand at low tide

The woods in winter

Chloe's horned tree monster

This fabulous picture was taken by my talented young French friend, Chloe Aubert. I am entering it on her behalf. Isn't it wonderful? And so is her other picture, below

Another of Chloe Aubert's lovely pictures - midsummer woodland

These two pictures (above and below) are, coincidentally, taken of the same place, at different seasons!
Here is my picture taken in winter.

Midwinter woodland

I took this picture last weekend at our favourite beach (so it does qualify as a January picture, honest!)

This is a waterfall on the side of Benbulben, our iconic mountain

The Mare's Tail in winter

Icicles on the frozen river

That's probably slightly overdone it on the nature bit.
Here are some wildlife pix.

Ducks on the Garavogue

Both of the next shots were also taken on the Garavogue

Stowaway

The perfect family

I love noiisy seagulls. I don't know what type this is, but he was trying to share my sandwich.

And finally, one last picture from Chloe Aubert.

A fox cub, surprised on the path
