I have amassed a large collection of Stock Photography images which previously could be accessed via a link to Photographers Direct.com. This was a well-established website with well over one million images on record, supplied by thousands of photographers worldwide. However, in early 2019 the site folded
without warning or explanation, I suspect as the result of a downturn in the Stock Photography market. As an alternative means of displaying my stock images, I am in the early stages of creating a series of thumbnail gallery pages featuring shots previously held by PD in addition to those included in the main posts. Due to the large number of JPEG files I have not attempted to re-keyword individual files as before but have grouped them under general headings so that they can be accessed via a general search. Larger categories will be sub-divided and some subjects may be duplicated on one or more pages.

Although roofless, St Mary`s kirk at Auchindoir is one of the finest medieval parish churches in Scotland and is mentioned in records from as far back as 1236. There is a rich early Romanesque doorway which dates from the early 14th-century and further alterations were carried out in the 16th and 17th centuries. The structure had fallen into ruin by 1809. The Sacrament House is a fine example of early 16th century work and panelling from the kirk`s interior has been removed and preserved elsewhere. The Sacrament House features a carved figure of Christ on the cross with a skull at its base and various Coats of Arms adorn the interior walls.
