• An Overnight Stay with a View

    27 июля 2022 г., Шотландия ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

    Yes, we are back at the Geospot because when I was here earlier I noticed a sign saying it was okay to stay overnight. When I arrived there was a BMW parked in the far corner then, not long after me, a motorhome arrived and chose its spot for the night. There is nothing here except the parking area and some information boards so you have to be self-sufficient, which I am. I don't need electricity because my solar power keeps the battery charged and I have a plastic bottle which I place outside below the sink waste pipe. I have water and a toilet too so I can completely survive off grid. The motorhome will be the same, though they may or may not have a solar panel, but what about the BMW given it too stayed overnight? I have no idea.

    As soon as I'd sorted myself out I set up the tripod and camera to create a panorama photo of that amazing view. There were midges about but they were manageable and before long I had what | needed then it was time for a hurried meal as it was now 10pm already. Where does the time go?

    Photo 2 represents roughly what I'm aiming for with the photo here and the last photo, somewhat reminiscent of the cockpit of an airliner, is the view though my windscreen at around 11.30pm. The light is very blue by this time but you can still see features of the landscape. To be honest, at this time of year it never gets properly dark.
