The Colour of the Skye
It's now the time of year when the heather flowers are just fading from pastel purple to soft brown. The summer grasses are beginning to die back and the bracken is taking on its autumn gold. Such deciduous trees as we have are putting on their autumn coats. When the sun shines, it's a great time to be outside with a camera - but winter brown can be just as spectacular as summer green. The colour of the landscape here changes so quickly and so completely.

Beautiful! I often wonder if my great-greats (great-grandfather's parents) ever had the time to rest from their labors for a wee bit and appreciate the beauty around them. The property on which they lived (and presumably worked) was just across the road from Roskhill.
You do kind of get used to seeing such wonderful scenery every day, and I suspect if you are born in the midst of it, and have never been anywhere else, then you don't appreciate the beauty as being particularly special.
