More Stunning Photos around Scotland from BBC News!

Every week, BBC News in Scotland asks people to send in their photos for publication. Scotland is a beautiful place, and these pictures convey that. Like last week, of course I have to start the photos with a dog. :)
   FUN FACT: Scotland, most northerly of the four parts of the United Kingdom, occupying about one-third of the island of Great Britain. The name Scotland derives from the Latin Scotia, land of the Scots, a Celtic people from Ireland who settled on the west coast of Great Britain about the 5th century CE.  Now, onto the photos>>
