Broadwood Loch Birdlife
Went for a day out to Broadwood Loch on the outskirts of Cumbernauld, Scotland. Looked like we might get wet, but fortunately dodged the showers and I was able to get these photos.

Twisted, Both Natural & Man Made
In response to twisted I looked at both natural twists & turns and those formed by human hands.
Twists & whorls in wooden decking on Santa Monica Pier?

On the same Santa Monica Pier, there are the twists and turns of the Roller Coaster and the Ferris Wheel.


A basket ball has many twists & turns in the pattern of dots.

Twisted lights formed into a chandalier type thingy.

A ram at Palacerigg Country Park, nr Glasgow?????? with its curved horns and twisted fleece.


Fungus on a fallen tree.

Spiral pattern on a hand crafted glass bowl.

Curved lines in architecture. The glass dome almost has a spiral effect when looked at for a while.
Looking past the crazed pattern in the charred wood, the twists and whorls of the wood grain can still be seen.

New fronds growing on a fern tree.

The intricate mechanism of a pocket watch, along with the attached chain.

Braided leather to form the falls of a flogger.
Rope and chains.
Internal workings of flowers.
The curved roof in The Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum, Glasgow??????
Twisted Ivy vines on a tree.

Twisted and gnarled trunk of an old oak tree. This particular tree was featured in the film Gregory’s Girl, 1980, a Scottish coming of age film; set in Cumbernauld, nr Glasgow.
