Circular plant tunnel: Tenerife Botanical Gardens
Urchin at Yellowcraig
Coral beach shells – Plockton
Ailsas’ weekly photo challenge is Circles.
Nature is full of soothing intriguing circles, and here are a few from my travels. The first one was taken this summer in the Botanical Gardens on the island of Tenerife, in the Atlantic Ocean. I loved the effect of a living tunnel, and it gave very welcome cooling shade from the fierce summer heat.
The second one was taken this summer on one of our local beaches on the East coast of Scotland, and the third was taken last summer on one of the white coral beaches on the West coast of Scotland, up beside Plockton. I am always blown away by the beauty and colour of shells, and had never really thought about their inherent roundness until Ailsas’ challenge 🙂

I really like the first photo – so effective.
Thank you….as soon as we were walking through this gorgeous living tunnel I knew I had to try and capture the circles which were layering into the distance 🙂
You captured it perfectly 🙂
