Fisherrow, East Lothian (near Edinburgh) where my family fished from for generations

The fishing village of Kinlochbervie, Sutherland (near Durness &  a second home for me)

Balnakeil (Durness) Sutherland, here & KLB, where my folks holidayed at for over 50 yrs

Galway, Ireland: where I lived in Ireland (playing music) and visit as often as I can

The Cliffs Of Moher, Co Clare: the wild Atlantic ocean that lashes Ireland's went coast

A county Clare sunset enjoyed before heading to a Trad music session at Brogan's in Ennis

From Scotland and Ireland, my People & Songs of the Sea project takes me to Vancouver

From British Columbia to California, so I can meet Fisherrow Scots who emigrated there 

Yosemite, California: saved for generations to enjoy by John Muir from Dunbar, Scotland

From Californian heat to Canada. Up to the cooler Prince Rupert and on to Babine Lake

Visiting Vancouver Island fisher folk at Port Hardy, Alert Bay, Courtenay and Comox

Vancouver Island: visiting Highland Scots from Rassay, now settled in Tofino and Victoria

Travelling I saw deer, bears, whales & otters.  And nothing as gentle as this humming bird

Sailing at sunset around Gabriola Island before returning to Vancouver and Scotland

Back to Scotland, the summer now past but Autumn's colours as vividly welcome as ever

Returning to Fisherrow where my granda' & great-granda fished & were Harbour Masters

People & Songs of the Sea - the journey it has taken me on has been longer than the miles

And, the highlight of my 2012 travels? Filming near to Port McNeil from my friend's boat, with the realisation that the dream of my Canadian project was now nearing completion.
