Snaps sample go near and far

An intrepid Airdrie photographer sent us in a sample of snaps featuring idyllic spots from south-west Scotland – and a couple closer to home.

John Fitzgerald had a packed portfolio to share with our readers, featuring Monklands skylines taken from his back garden and shots of Stranraer, Portpatrick and the Mull of Galloway

John said: “I enjoy capturing beautiful moments when I am out adventuring with my family.”
