Courtesy of daughter!

I’ve pinched one of Cathy's photos again! It was a toss up between this lovely shot or a flower….no contest in my book!
Scottish thistles looking lovely in Braemar.
Thanks Cathy!

Three good things:
1. They also sent a video of three spaniels playing in the garden…Connie was having great fun!
2. The sound bar has arrived…we have to be patient now until Jack comes home again to install it!
3. I’ve had a good clean up today!

Lovely summer day....that sky tho'........

Such a lovely open space to be out walking. Those thistles look so spindly. A really nice image.

[Delwyn Barnett]

Scotch thistles are really such a lovely shape and colour. This photo is so good with those clouds and the path making a lovely line.

@happypat we don't really get them now California thistles are more of a problem..

[Beryl Lloyd]

Beautiful - you feel like doing the highland fling !! ( not really !! )

[Joan Robillard]

Great shot with the sky and flowers.

[Judith Johnson]

Love your pov, such a bright fresh shot. Makes me want to sing 'the hills are alive...'

[Maggiemae]

Perhaps this area is not used for farming - just to surround this narrow path with a beautiful scene! Isn't Braemar where the Queen stays?
