On Monday Fiona and I went to a neighbouring village to pick up a couple of things from the local store; and to have a takeaway coffee sitting down at the local slipway. After coffee we headed back to the store but detoured when we saw a sign saying "pier" - so we investigated to see the difference between a slipway and a pier. Turns out the pier is quite historic; and a long structure that jutted out into the sea that the fishing boats tied up alongside.
Anyway I digress. What caught my eye was all the beautiful rust around what is now a quasi abandoned structure. In this blog post I share but a few of the images of rust. I like the opening photo of the ladder leading down in to the sea. Other bits of rust beauty follow.

When we were walking to the pier we came across a wee rabbit that had made it's home under some slabs of stone surrounded by good camo grass.
And we spied a boat that may be painted in the future.
Sometimes the unplanned trips offer much joy.
Look at all that beautiful colour and texture!
