New Year's Day 2022
Contents
Some people take active part and add their photos to the forum thread, as well as attaching the shared description to their image. Many others take the photo and submit it to the site, but don't post to the forum. Others go out for lengthy walks with their cameras and take lots of photos.
I thought I'd bring all these groups together - a total of 90 photographers. I've arranged the images in more or less (map) north to south order and added a brief description where there was none. Spot the Irish contribution.

A view SW across Skuda Sound from Breck of Ramnageo on Unst.
Taken at 15:14.
The brow of the hill is the site of a newly refurbished covered reservoir and a Trig Point. The field that houses them is poorly cultivated and has a seasonal pond in a hollow between the reservoir and the Trig Point. The trees are mature and a feature of the local landscape. There is a reasonable view from the Trig Point

Bright sunshine on New Year's Day brought lots of people to Belhaven beach. Some people braved the freezing water to have a swim in the North Sea!

This is one of 2 distilleries of the Isle of Arran Distillers, only opened in 2017, and producing peated whisky, though you cannot buy a bottle yet, it's so new.

January sunshine had brought some visitors out for a walk around Maidens. There's always something to see at a harbour. For a closer look at the bright yellow power catamaran, see NS2008 : A power catamaran at Maidens

− south of Alnwick
The original castle, dating in part from the 14th century fell into disrepair many centuries ago. The main house standing in the middle of an extensive estate is surprisingly recent, dating from 1998. It stands on the site of an 18th century house which was demolished in 1960 because the owners could not sustain the cost of maintenance. The single storey building to the right is the 18th century orangery (Grade II listed).

The broken tree is alongside a path at the western rim of the valley of the Stanhope Burn; it appears to have suffered damage prior to the recent episode and there's evidence of rot being exposed too; all the same, with the tree being firmly rooted, it looks as if its life will continue. The fall of part of the tree presumably obstructed the path and clearly, chainsaw work has been needed to clear it.

The path taking a direct line from Hurst and down to Castle Farm in Arkengarthdale probably provides the steepest way off (or up) and the relief of getting out of the inevitable buffeting from the wind is tempered by the need for concentration where the rut gets deep and muddy, or lower down as the path becomes very vague and grassy, but still unrelentingly steep. Photography always provides an excuse for a pause and it would be a shame not to take a moment to enjoy the view - not many New Year's days are so warm and sunny.
