  Tarbert makes a great day trip from Oban, with cafes and galleries, and even a castle. #Tarbert #Argyll #Scotland #seaside #daysout #daytrip #photography

  Managed to get the rare Railcard EPs CD as a repress, along with their new album "Two Steps At A Time", and both signed for me by the band, super pleased. @skepwax https://railcardband.bandcamp.com/ #bandcamp #Railcard

  I've been gradually moving content from YouTube to Peertube, my chosen instance being CuddlyTube, from @PrivateCoffee . So far I'm impressed, it's worked very well. I setup 2 channels, one for our B&B (including trail cam shots of our wildlife), the other for the wider area of Scotland. Please check out the channels, feedback welcomed. https://cuddly.tube/c/four_oaks_oban/videos https://cuddly.tube/c/scottishtravels/videos If you would like to try Peertube: htt...

  Trying to embrace my inner Martin Parr with this kitsch little figure found sitting atop a fence post. Who bought it? Who left it there? #kitsch #foundobject #photo #photography #Scotland #canon #CanonR5mk2 #dxophotolab

  Triton, Stromness, once a fishing boat and later a dive boat. Now abandoned and resting on the shores of Loch Etive. The front mast has been massively distorted somehow. https://flic.kr/p/2ssJKuf #shipwreck #photo #photography #Scotland #canon #CanonR5mk2 #dxophotolab

  Looking for PixelFed server recommendations, ideally European based with English dialogue that are accepting new accounts? Will probably be posting mainly black and white / monochrome, nothing offensive or age sensitive. I've tried the obvious pixelfed.scot (@bumble) and also tried gram.social (@Gram), but having completed the email confirmations I've not heard anything further from either (which seemed odd). #pixelfed

  I'm now setup on PixelFed and have just posted my first photograph. Would love to get a few followers directly on there. https://pixelfed.scot/DuncanAstbury #pixelfed

  #introductions Hi there! My first toot as I learn the ways of Mastodon. I run a bed and breakfast on the west coast of Scotland in Oban, Argyll (lucky me). When not busy with the B&B interests include photography, mainly landscapes with alt digitial/analogue hybrid processes such as cyanotype. Time permitting I also dabble with woodworking and a bit of sewing now and then. Break times usually involve coffee, a sudoku and listening to vinyl. #Argyll #photographer #cyanotype #taphophile

  If you know this as "Castle Aaaaargh" then you'll be a Monty Python fan, otherwise it's usually known simply as Castle Stalker. It is a 14th-century Scottish tower house situated on a tidal islet on Loch Laich, just a wee way up the road from us here at Four Oaks. Tours of the castle usually book up quickly but we were lucky enough to get a last minute cancellation. #CastleStalker #castle #towerhouse #LochLaich #Argyll #Scotland #montypython #montypythonholygrail
