Pic of the Week: The Footie by Gill Williamson

Last year I spent a few weeks on the Isle of Harris.

It is one of my favourite holiday locations and for taking photographs.

While I was there I decided to visit the small island Scalpay which is connected to Harris by bridge. While I was driving around I came across this old run down cottage and went to investigate its photo potential.

I was impressed with the contents and state of the cottage and could visualise someone sitting in the chair watching the television.

I made a note of its location and returned a few days later with a volunteer from the campsite I was staying at. I took a series of images which were not easy as the floorboards were not exactly stable and movement was limited!

I later added an image from a Scotland v England match on to the TV set that was in the cottage and an image of Ally from the internet to complete the scene.

Pic of the Week is in association with Eastwood Photographic Society — photography for all.
