    A Different View of The Kelpies — Fan Of… #112

    Hi All 👋 Feel free to join in this weekly challenge whenever you find yourself thinking “I’m a fan of…” (see below for how-to).

    This week’s Fan Of… is the Kelpies as seen by Lensy.

    This Fan Of... post follows on from last weeks Fan Of… #111 about The Kelpies (? click here for more info). So far, I haven’t seen many other lensball shots of the Kelpies & thought they would lend themselves to this style of photography.

    The Kelpies — Fan Of… #111

    Hi All 👋 Feel free to join in this weekly challenge whenever you find yourself thinking “I’m a fan of…” (see below for how-to).

    This week’s Fan Of… The Kelpies.

    The Kelpies (? click here for more info) are the largest equine sculptures in the world & are modelled on two workhorses of times gone by, Duke & Baron, representing the lineage of the heavy horse that were key to Scotland’s industrial success. The Kelpies sit at the eastern end of the Forth & Clyde Canal & are well worth a visit if you are ever in the area.

    Happy Anniversary– Fan Of… #110

    Hi All 👋 Feel free to join in this weekly challenge whenever you find yourself thinking “I’m a fan of…” (see below for how-to).

    This week’s Fan Of… celebrating another anniversary with my awesome wife, Susan (? click to check out her site) — Happy Anniversary, Sweetie

    We’ve been together 24 years now, & married 18. We don’t have a car through choice & so have recently been saving like mad to get ourselves a couple of long-distance e-bikes. They arrived just over a week ago, in time for our latest anniversary, & the adventures have already started. We will be using the local canal paths to get around & explore as many of the local attractions as possible by bike.
