The gentle clatter of woods on the jack cuts through the stillness of the evening.
The simple pleasure of flat-green bowling in the late-evening sunshine is enjoyed by this group of pensioners in Dumfries and Galloway.

Love the saturated colours and the lighting; it makes them look like paintings.
Thank you ATA – this is the true colour! Very green in D&G and that late evening low sunlight created the lovely long shadows. I was just lucky to be there 🙂
Beautiful shot Jude. Looks like a lovely way to spend an evening.
Thanks Sue – just a smooth lawn and a few balls, simple 🙂
Looks peaceful and slow-paced Jude. However, I am told that it is a cut-throat game, with great rivalry. Just on the surface then…
Regards as always, Pete. x
Indeed… 😉
As it is worldwide – but seldom in so beautiful a setting ! I hope they appreciate it …
I’m sure they do 😀 We saw several bowling greens around this region so I suspect there is a lot of competition.
Never mind lawn bowling, I’d just stand there circling round to see all that stunning, open space. 🙂 ❤
You’re right, it is pretty there.

Looks so serene. Your wording is as well!
Oh, thank you Sammy, that’s so nice 🙂
Lovely way to simplify a summer evening!
Very low tech 🙂
Lovely! I took a similar photo last week in Felixstowe. They all glared at me like I was a spy!
Obviously the Scots are more chilled – or perhaps they thought I was photographing the cows in the background 😀
😉
Sporty exercise without all the hype that goes with so much sport these days!
Yup, not much lycra on show here 🙂
That photo just says friends, relax, enjoying life. Good one Jude
Thanks PP, that’s what it says to me too.
:), Have a good day Jude
