This one of those images that really draws you in Rob. I really, really like it.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes, I know what you mean, Pete. I've been wanting to capture the sign and the church beyond, but I've never been completely happy with it, until, that is, I saw this guy sitting there with his pad and pencil. Seemed the perfect moment.

 

[Dan Cattermole]

This is really REALLY good Rob.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Dan. I like this wee nutter, sorry, netter...

 

[Brian Moore]

Nice Rob. Where did you get the Nutter? I mean Nettar? (From H?)

 

[Beth Carter]

love the impact of this, esp. with the young man sitting there contemplating his future.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Beth.

Brian - I can easily see how your brain connected the words 'Nutter' and "Hamish", but no - I got this from eBay.
