The Bass

What a glorious day, even if I had to spend most of it in an office. I was on an early-ish train down to Newcastle and glimpsing North Berwick Law in the distance made me think of the bould SamIam and the intrepid Sands, currently making their way towards Arizona with the cats. So I got the camera out and grabbed a blip of the Bass Rock in the distance as the train thundered along, on the offchance that they may see it from some ghastly airport building and know what a wonderful East Lothian day they missed.

This was from almost the same spot as I got this last year. The white appearance of the rock is due entirely to it being covered by a huge colony of gannets and their guano!
