Title picture

Have changed the title picture that fronts this blog. It is a very wintry image, although that doesn't mean lots of snow. Just very brown and dull colours, with the black ribbon of the road leading into the distance. The hill is called Eitsal, and carries transmitters for radio, television and mobile phones. The location is about 15 miles southwest of Stornoway.

  1. Looks about like winter here in Texas. Brown, dead everything...

  2. You can find the same kind of landscape in Alentejo, here in Portugal, only with lots of olive trees and corktrees.

  3. I like the picture, and it fits well with the "lines" part of "Atlantic Lines".

  4. I like how the roads just cut through the landscape. I think it looks very nice on the header.

  5. Does the grass ever look green there? All your pictures show it brown it seems. I am so used to green here that it seems odd. We usually don't brown up until the frost hits us later on. Well hopefully not til October or so.
