Glenkiln Reservoir - Shawhead - Dumfries & Galloway
Glenkiln Reservoir - Shawhead. Glenkiln Sculpture Park is a sculpture landscape in Dumfries and Galloway, south-west Scotland. It comprises six sculptures placed in a moorland setting around Glenkiln Reservoir. The sculptures are located around 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) north-west of Shawhead, and 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) west of Dumfries. Between 1951 and 1976, local landowner Sir William Keswick (grandson of William Keswick) assembled a collection of works by Auguste Rodin, Henry Moore, and Jacob Epstein. Keswick worked with the artists in siting their works in a natural landscape, and commissioned works. On 13 October 2013, the BBC reported that Standing Figure had been stolen. All the sculptures except "Glenkiln Cross" have been removed for security reasons on police advice and are no longer available to view.

Day three, three men and a lodge. Stopped alongside Glenkiln reservoir for the first of the sculptures but the light and angles weren't playing. We tried all angles including this one.

The other photos have been geo-tagged as on or around the summit. For less busy mountains, it can be a little hit and miss.

Speddochhill - various focal points
Very similar to a previous photo, but there are many focal points - pleased with how this turned out. Doesn't look as good when uploaded to Flickr, though.
