In the forest - Drymen winter walk

A walk in the forestry above Drymen on the winter solstice, though it feels more like autumn with bracken still rust-coloured and gorse blooming yellow against the dark pines.
Wet moss glows emerald on old tumbledown walls, and lichen hangs from branches like the forest’s own winter decorations, shining pale in the soft light.
The sun sets by half past three, turning the path gold before darkness comes.
