Skye
Saturday had been mentioned as a possible date for a meet with some of the folk from the Camera Club and after some hasty last minute arrangements I was whisked off to Skye. We drove through pouring rain and high wind with no definite venue for the first stop so I suggested Talisker Bay to see if the weather and the high tide would provide some drama.
Breakers and a waterfall flowing uphill was enough drama for me:
1.
As the tide receded the lovely black sand was exposed along with shiny black rocks:
2.
There had been very little rain at Talisker Bay, but as we got back to the car the heavens opened again so we decided to drive the short distance to Glen Brittle and grab some lunch to see if the weather improved; it did so we headed up the path to the Fairy Pools.
Here are a couple of shots of Sgurr an Fheadain, The Waterpipe Gully and Allt Coir a'Mhadaidh, usually known as the Fairy Pools, Glen Brittle (or Gleann Bhreatail):
3.
4.
I thought that I would just mention for all those who attended the E-System User Group meet on Skye a few years ago, there were no naked women swimming there this time!
By the time we finished at the Fairy Pools it was nearly dark and we had to head off home, but there was a quick stop at Eilean Donan Castle for a quick night time shot:
5.
Thanks for looking
