Boggy plains under Sgurr an Fheadain, near the famous Fairy Pools,

Isle of Skye. Comments appreciated.

Another one from Old Man of Storr, Isle of Skye. One hour after

sunrise, we were heading back to the parking place, meeting first

groups of tourists going up. Comments appreciated.

Another Old Man classics. Please view larger. Thank you for your

comments & suggestions.

Old Man of Storr, looking northeast towards northern end of Rona and

Thank you for your comments. The key point here is the location itself - it's easy to make good photo on place like this if the weather is at least a bit convenient.

One of "classic" photos of Old Man of Storr, Isle of Skye. It was

completely dark at the time we arrived to the parking place and we

were really surprised that the dense forest we were used to see there

disappeared - for a short time we believed we were on wrong place.

Larry Greenbaum: Thank you for the compliment.

During last year's holidays, we visited not only Lewis, but also Uists and Eriskay (where we spent 3 days). Lewis with Callanish, Carloway broch, Butt of Lewis lighthouse and other well known places is a tourist attraction compared to them.

But the times are changing and even these places can be accessed easily. During my first visit of Scotland in 1995, the Skye bridge was before completion and now, Skye can be reached by car in a few hours from Edinburgh or Glasgow (and most known places such as Old Man of Storr are full of people during the season) . Sometimes I feel a bit nostalgic about "old times", when the traveling to such places was not so easy and more "adventurous", but honestly, it's unlikely I would have visited them in these times.

José Luis González: Of course there's my (and my wife's) shadow in the foreground - it's a part of photo (whether good or bad) :-)

Thank you for your comments.

It was a really exceptional day on the Fiddler - after three days of poor weather, it was very windy and fast moving heavy clouds created interesting patches of light on the beautiful landscape of Coigach and Inverpolly.

Next time, maybe, I will try to climb on Beinn an Eoin.

Few meters below the summit of Sgurr an Fhidhleir (last one from that

windy day, promise...), looking towards Beinn an Eoin and Cul Beag.
