The ruins of Ardrossan Castle in Ayrshire, rising above the town when seen from Saltcoats. A castle was first built on the site in about 1140, but the remains you see today mainly date back to after 1450.

Myself, my cousin Charlene and my Aunty Jean in Saltcoats, sometime in the early to mid-1990s. ❤️ A lovely little snapshot of family, seaside days and memories that take you straight back in time. 🌊📸

A little bit of #autumn #cow art in two color variations of a (possibly?) #Ayrshire coat.

I tried a Holstein pallette in the same pattern, but it didn't really fit with the rest of the theme.
The leaves are a premade brush asset from #ClipStudio
The book reads mostly, "Moo, moooo. Moo-moo mmooooo moo!" etc.

The harbour in the pretty village of Dunure in Ayrshire, overlooked by the village inn. The origins of the village probably date back to those of nearby Dunure Castle, while the harbour was built in 1811 by Thomas Kennedy for £50,000.

Dunure Castle, Ayrshire. An early home of the Kennedy Earls of Cassillis. The 4th Earl tortured Allan Stewart here in 1570, by roasting him and they say his screams can still be heard.

The tiny, remarkably beautiful, Cathedral of the Isles in Millport on the island of Great Cumbrae in the Firth of Clyde. Built from 1849 to 1851, the height of the spire is over three times the length of the nave. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/cumbrae/cathedral/index.html

Greenan Castle, near Ayr. The ruin of a 15/16th C tower house, on the site of a previous motte and bailey and promontory fort. Tales of family feuds and murder still resonate around this atmospheric cliff top ruin.
