Caledonian Pines

 Tree-fetish Tuesday #47





A handful of venerable pines in Knoydart - John Muir Trust are nurturing a new generation of scots pines in the area.








 Darranacorachs is a long abandoned farmstead deep in the spruce plantations. When I first encountered it (and painted this picture) there were still several buildings and some accompanying scots pines, but both the pines and the buildings have since been smothered in windthrown spruce trees.
