Walking by Loch Lomond in Midwinter
The loch is high, swallowing the beaches completely, and what little light there is in midwinter gets caught and held in the still water.
Old oaks line the shore, their trunks patterned with moss and lichen in the same way bracken and heather patch the hills beyond - holly grows thick beneath them, a remnant of an industrial past when oak bark tanned leather and holly wood was carved into fine-grained blocks for printing textiles.
A single tree stands stranded in the water, its reflection doubling it against the grey.
