| | | The swoosh...
After a golf tournament there was an additional fun competition on the driving range.
Nearest to the 100 yards marker with a pitching wedge won a bottle of brandy...I managed to reach the play offs. Not bad with 60 competitors :rolleyes:
I was already dressed for the BBQ...I just moved the sporran to the side for this small event. I don't wear a sporran when I play golf.
The picture was taken from above...the photographer stood on the side boarding...the kilt is not too long...it's the pleats swooshing backwards.
Oh...and nobody noticed what I wore...or didn't wore...underneath.

Robin, that's one fine photo. I know just how difficult it can be to 'capture' the pleats in full flight.

Thats cool, even caught the belt flexing under the force of the rotation. Good form!
