<p>I've been feeling very stuck since I got home from Scotland - unable to get on with anything or move forward. People keep telling me it's post holiday blues - and maybe it is - but it needs to be over! So,  after a concerted effort at decision-making - here's another one from the trip.<br />
<br />
This view was behind the van when I parked up by Loch Stroan. I got there at dusk and in the gloaming I was too scared to walk under the bridge. It took me two days to venture through - early in the morning, only to find it was not scary at all. <br />
<br />
This was taken from right across the loch, where the edges were quite boggy. I struggled to find a vantage point where all the lines were straight and level (and yes, I had to fiddle a bit with it afterwards), but worth the effort I think.</p>

<p>was set there when the first stones were lifted from the fields and fitted together by hands that knew the weight of weather. They built it low and steady, facing the hill, as if asking for a kind of shelter no roof could give.<br />
<br />
The first farmer rose before the light and worked until it slipped back behind the ridge. Years folded into years. Boots wore the same paths. New hands took up the work and passed it on. Children grew, left, and sometimes returned.<br />
<br />
And the house remembered them all. It held the warmth of their fires in its walls, the echo of their voices in its beams. Even now, with smoke rising in a thin, steady line, it stands as it always has, keeping the fields and the lives that have quietly taken root around it.<br />
