I'll be putting my account on ice with a view to deleting it. If anyone wants to remain connected,reach out to exchange details,likely email. I'll still be on Facebook and YouTube for the time being but they're probably next in that order.

Quick one today, seemed apt to put this sunrise shot of Dirleton up from 2020 as I'm heading in that direction to help my pal Tina Orourke c/o Ezee Riders get set up to take a handful of lucky guests from Marine North Berwick on what I believe to be the best tour East Lothian has to offer!

Peaking over the shoulders of giants.

People often say in times of desperation that they will move mountains (to make the other person happy or achieve a goal). I ask who the hell wants to move mountains? they're fine where they are!.... I guess I can apply this to my life's situation, it is what it is and harbouring the desperate hope for some kind of improvement to my circumstances is probably the reason for it not happening and undoubtedly creating and fuelling anguish.

One thing I love about mountains is that they not only dominate the landscape but to quote Joe Rogan- they "don't give a f*ck!" . They create perspective just by their sheer presence. They've been here for hundreds of millions of years, and they'll be here long after I'm pushing up daisies. When I'm in the hills I begin to feel at peace and imagine them rumbling to one another- "Get a load of this daft wee c**t!" 😂

You could say I'm easily distracted, the truth is I was supposed to be getting sunrise shots of another place, but the light was better here and the joys of being up at sunrise is nobody is looking over my shoulder. Luckily, being up at the crack of dawn means that nobody is around to interfere, constantly looking over your shoulder. The funny thing about working with people who cannot get over their own ego is that rather than trusting people with the responsibility to deliver their best work, they spit out their dummies and feel all disrespected if one shows the slightest initiative. Instead of being a part of something great, they would rather be the captain of a sinking ship. Sticking with the naval metaphor, people like that can kiss my canon or polish my mast!

How about the best Naval euphemism gets a smiley face like? 😊
