A few fae Fowlsheugh

With the sun beating down I ventured to Fowlsheugh to fish for Mackerel which ended soon after arriving when my faulty reel (lack of maintenance) failed while casting with my beachcaster and I caught my "shutter finger" in the line meaning I couldn't cast anymore!

Plan B, which was always on the cards was to take a few photos of the sea birds flying along the cliffs was also affected as I had to try and use another finger to focus and press the shutter. It worked to a degree but not without some trouble and pain. Note, the use of a new and unusual excuse!
