Pennan

Pennan Village in Aberdeenshire, Scotland; famous for the film "Local Hero" which was filmed here in the early 80's. One week after this photograph was taken, the village was partly swamped by a landslide.

Artist Reply: Many thanks Hedda. It certainly was a shock when I saw the landslide on the news the following week. It's certainly a stunning tranquil little village. Regards Andy S

Artist Reply: It's a beautifull village and your right Jean, it was a calm evening, such a shock that it was hit by the landslide less than a week later. Regards Andy S
