It had not been a great day, but come evening the sun was shining brightly as I went for an evening walk round Hatton with the dogs.\u00a0\u00a0 As I walked along the path behind the Manse, the sun was shi8ning through the trees and I took the opportunity to point the camera up and create a picture through the branches of the mature trees which grow there.\u00a0\u00a0 The site is scheduled for redevelopment along with where the West Church used to stand.\u00a0 I hope that some of these trees are preserved in the project.<\/p>\n

Not all the trees in Hatton are mature: I noticed this little birch tree in a garden near main Street.\u00a0 Birch trees brought back memories of walks last week in the woods of Glen Esk.<\/p>\n

As we made my way up the track behind Northfield Gardens the sun was shining\u00a0on the\u00a0fields, with distinctive lines of the growing crops.\u00a0 But what really took my attention was the distinctive cloud in the sky to the north.<\/p>\n

Then I cam across a little field of most unusual sheep.\u00a0 They seemed quite interested in the dogs and me as we stopped to look and photograph.<\/p>\n

Finally we made our way up the road towards Easter Aquharney Farm, stopping at the Trig Point at Hobshill.\u00a0\u00a0 I am always disappointed that it does not seem possible to get a better picture of the village from this map-maker’s vantage point.\u00a0\u00a0 The houses seem too far away and there are\u00a0unsightly poles and wires.\u00a0\u00a0 Some day I promise myself I will try to find the trig point on the high ground on the other side of the main A90 road.\u00a0\u00a0 |Perhaps there might be a better picture of Hatton from there?<\/p>\n
