About Midlothian in Winter

Winners
Congratulations to Ashley Lapinksie (Ashbash31), who took this wonderfully atmospheric photo of the wintry fields at Cousland:


The standard of entries in this competition was really high, so the judges felt it was unfair to single out just one photo.

Highly commended were "Winter Walk" by Rebekah Russell (yoooitsRebekah), "Hirendean sunset" by Jon Steele (mccullin4) and "The Pentlands on a cold and frosty morning" by Stuart MacFarlane (saligobay):
