Just after moving into my new place, I managed to take some time out and see my new home. I found some of the waves at Thurso amazing, but a local surfer pointed me in the direction of Sandside Bay.

This one is at Lybster;

As you can see, I quite like getting out when the wind blows.

Enjoy

I'm glad everyone likes the shots :)

I have always had a passion for landscape in general, but seascapes are something I can really get stuck into.

Boa, I'm quite flattered that you have chosen a picture for your desktop. Careful when you mention money, you get me thinking! :)

I will post more!
