New Year's Day 2011
The collection of photos taken on New Year's Day, one from each contributor, has been run in the Themed Topic Forum for a number of years, though none was organised back in 2011.
Contributors - a total of 78 - still went out on New Year's Day and took/submitted photographs, here is my selection.
I've arranged the images in more or less (grid) north to south order and added a brief description where there was none.

Where the name "Castlehill" came from is not apparent as it is not given to any of the adjacent features on the map. It is one of no less than five reservoirs in the Glen Devon area.

After a historically cold December, the slow thaw continues. Little used roads, especially private ones are very icy.
