A digital composite of the #WallaceMonument in Stirling, Scotland re-imagined as Scotland's first moon launch vehicle. A blue toned image showing the rocket shaped architecture supported by the Saturn launch tower, as steam spreads our from the base as if getting ready to launch towards the large full moon that sits in the background on the right of the frame Anything #NASA can do... Powered by the world's largest IRN-BRU fuelled booster rocket. Just shake to launch.

Watched the #ArtemisII launch late last night with the same awe & enthusiasm building that brought back long buried memories of a very young me watching #Apollo launches live.

So, our local #WallaceMonument got a bit of a makeover to channel some of that.

A visit to Wallace Monument near Stirling 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. After watching the movie ‘Frankenstein 2025’ it was cool to see his lab location 😅. Still it was good visiting after many years. Think I was a child last time I was here!! #wallacemonument #stirling

Incredible views from the crown of the Wallace Monument in Scotland, but ii is completely open and the weather was blustery and freezing cold so I didn't hang too long. Could have stayed there forever

Stirling Castle & the Wallace monument in the shadow of the Ochills. Shot at 400mm on my new (to me) 100 - 400mm lens last week created a viewpoint where the city of Stirling is completely absent from the image.

This photograph captures a striking moment as an RAF jet flies past the Wallace Monument in Stirling against a clear blue sky. The towering sandstone structure, built in honour of Sir William Wallace, stands proudly atop Abbey Craig, its intricate Gothic details sharply defined. The dark silhouette of the aircraft, positioned to the left of the monument, adds a dynamic contrast to the scene, highlighting the blend of Scotland’s historic past and modern aviation. Below, the wooded hillside provides a natural backdrop, framing the monument in a timeless setting.

This photograph captures a striking moment as an RAF jet flies past the summit of Dumyat in the Ochil Hills against a clear blue sky.

A lot of #RAF activity in the skies around here just now. Or, maybe we're just a bit more conscious of it. Either way, two of these small jets carried out a low pass between the #WallaceMonument and #Dumyat in the Ochil Hills on Thursday.
