Lucky enough to live in an area of Scotland with some nice woodland walks right on my back door and the Ochil Hills out the front door as a DM it can be a great inspiration for my campaign and lore writing. Yesterday for the first time I used the scenery for something else. I took some pics of my own characters miniature which I painted and who I use on the occasions I play instead of running the game. This is Nilft, the Fey Touched, Half Elven, Wild Magic Barbarian out and about. #dungeonsanddragons #dnd #dungeonsanddragonsminiatures #dndminiatures #dndminaturesphotos #miniaturepainting #wildmagicbarbarian #dnd5e #rpg #ttrpg #geeklife #nerdlife #dndminiaturesoutdoors #scotland #coalsnaughton #gartmorndam #clackmannanshire #ochilhills #trees
A wee early hours expedition this morning. A beautiful cold and clear morning with some gorgeous light. I have been wanting to catch these guys in flight for a while and today they obliged. I am not a wildlife photographer by any stretch but I have to say, that was a really nice way to start the day. #gartmorndam #goldenlight #autofocus #practice #swan #swanlanding #swanflight #water #gartmorndam #clackmananshire #fvcollege #fvcollegephotography #earlymorning #wildlifephotographyscotland #scottishphotographers #scottishphotography #duck
Lovely walk this afternoon at Gartmorn Dam, one of my new walks since moving to Alloa💕 Time in nature always kindly reminds me of the beauty in simply being present.

Hope you have a lovely weekend! ✨Drop in class available on Wednesday for Deep Rest Yoga Nidra Message for info 😊 #presence #naturewalk #InnerJourney #FridayFeeling #pauseandbreathe #gartmorndam

Fun day with the boys. James and I took Bracken to #gartmorndam this afternoon to really stretch his legs. His brother Sam is elderly and requires a lot less exercise daily to manage his old bones, but Bracken is lively and young so he was in the woods, keen to get to ducks and swans, dug up an old stump and splashed about in the reservoir. At home, the doggos have been snuggly and cuddly beans and making me feel very welcome 🥰 #clackmannanshirepetcare #gartmorncountrypark #labsofinstagram #gundogwalks #dogfriendly #dogwalksinscotland #petsittingjournal #cuddlepups #springerspaniellovers

🥾 Walk: Gartmorn Dam 🥾 Gartmorn Dam is Scotland’s oldest reservoir, constructed in 1713 to supply water for pumps draining a nearby colliery. The waters are an important migration destination for overwintering wildfowl, while paths on all sides are popular with dog walkers and enable good viewing opportunities of the Ochil Hills on a clear day. Photos are from last month; route guide at the link below ⬇ 🔗 More info: https://sobt.co.uk/walk-gartmorn-dam/ 📷 December 2023 #scotlandoffthebeatentrack #sobt #scotland #sobt #gartmorndam #snow #alloa #clackmannanshire

A Sunday well spent …. It’s been a busy few weeks so after a few chores, I took myself off to the forest for a walk with the dog. It was a chilly one … felt autumnal but my coffee cup says otherwise! Then home for roast beef and a glass of red. Perfect Sunday with family🍁🍂. #sundaymornings #walkinthewoods #coffee #christmasiscoming #atumncolors #gartmorndam

trees in the sun at Gartmorn Dam near Sauchie on Armistace Day. There are no words to wash away the pain and suffering in conflicts of all types around the world which is our home. It’s important to find solace in the simplicity around us, in faith (if you have a faith) and then to care and act in the light of the suffering of those who Jesus reminded us, are our neighbours. ‘Love your neighbour.’ #thoughts #pondering #outside #freshair #trees #sunny afternoon #gartmorncountrypark #gartmorndam

Hammy and I went for a beautiful wee walk yesterday at Gartmorn Dam in Alloa. I just wanted to be by the water for some reason. It's so calming, though not necessarily with the wee one 😂 He didn't want to go, as usual but he loved it too. This is my fave photo from our wander. #GartmornDam #Alloa #reflections

An evening autumn walk with Bracken, and I took along my own pup Klee for a playmate. There are only a few months between them age wise, I knew they would be fast friends, and they absolutely were. They kept each other busy and had a competition to see who could sniff the most things. #gartmorndam #gartmorncountrypark #clackmannanshirepetcare #clackmannanshiredogs #dogwalker # #doggyplaytime #scottishwalks #scotlandlabrador #scottishfrug #rescuedog #pupstagram #labradorretriever

Did you know each Robin had a unique pattern on it’s red breast?

Nothing’s gonna stop us now 💪🏼 2 exercise sessions in 2 days after having the little man. Pump class last night and then a 5km Canicross run with @forthvalleycanicross around Gartmorn Dam. Milo will definitely sleep well today! I cannot express how amazing it feels to be back doing what I enjoy. Lucky to have a supportive partner that understands ❤️
‘A walk in the woods’ —————————————————————————— Another of my favourite spots from near Gartmorn Dam, so many spots for some amazing photos, especially when the lighting hits like this. . . . #amateurphotography #amateurphotographer #photographer #photographersofinstagram #autisticphotographers #autisticphotographer #photography #photographylovers #photographyeveryday #lifethroughthelens #gartmorndam #gartmorn #dam #scotland #viewsofscotland #scotland #photooftheday #canon #canoneos80d #canonclub #canonphotography #canonphotographer #gavin_m_photographyoriginal
‘Fancy fences’ —————————————————————————— Another shot taken in the sunken garden, I kinda loved the designs and patterns in these fence panels..not much more to say about this one though. . . . #amateurphotography #amateurphotographer #photographer #photographersofinstagram #autisticphotographers #autisticphotographer #photography #photographylovers #photographyeveryday #lifethroughthelens #gartmorndam #gartmorn #dam #scotland #viewsofscotland #scotland #photooftheday #canon #canoneos80d #canonclub #canonphotography #canonphotographer #gavin_m_photographyoriginal
‘Leafy tunnel’ —————————————————————————— I’ve explored Gartmorn Dam more times now than I can actually remember, yet I’ve never really stopped to pay attention to some of the spots hidden away within the area known as ‘The Sunken Garden’. Quite a few picturesque spots tucked away if you know where to look for them. . . . #amateurphotography #amateurphotographer #photographer #photographersofinstagram #autisticphotographers #autisticphotographer #photography #photographylovers #photographyeveryday #lifethroughthelens #gartmorndam #gartmorn #dam #scotland #viewsofscotland #scotland #photooftheday #canon #canoneos80d #canonclub #canonphotography #canonphotographer #gavin_m_photographyoriginal
‘Benches of flowers’ —————————————————————————— I always like trying to get shots like this, using leading lines to draw attention to the main subject of focus, but I never seem to be able to get the angle just right. What’s everyone’s opinion on this one as I feel this is one of the best attempts I’ve had so far. . . . #amateurphotography #amateurphotographer #photographer #photographersofinstagram #autisticphotographers #autisticphotographer #photography #photographylovers #photographyeveryday #lifethroughthelens #gartmorndam #gartmorn #dam #scotland #viewsofscotland #scotland #photooftheday #canon #canoneos80d #canonclub #canonphotography #canonphotographer #gavin_m_photographyoriginal
‘Dam stormy’ —————————————————————————— Back to one of my favourite places to shoot, I feel it’s been far too long since I uploaded a photo from the Dam. I had to lean so far out above the water to take this shot that honestly there was quite a bit of fear in my head that I was about to get a rather unwanted bath, results were worth it though. . . . #amateurphotography #amateurphotographer #photographer #photographersofinstagram #autisticphotographers #autisticphotographer #photography #photographylovers #photographyeveryday #lifethroughthelens #gartmorndam #gartmorn #dam #scotland #viewsofscotland #scotland #photooftheday #canon #canoneos80d #canonclub #canonphotography #canonphotographer #gavin_m_photographyoriginal
