I had a week off and tried to make the most of it with a few days camping, hiking, fishing, and kayaking on Skye then some hiking and luxury in a campervan in Glencoe. I also managed a wee bit of photography. :-)
Some shots below and still a few to work on.
Skye
Hiked up to 750m to get this shot near sunset.

Slept up at 800m then climbed a bit more in the morning to these views.

Part of the Cuillin Ridge at first light. I don't think any photo could capture how I felt being up there for sunrise.

This photo has been done a million times and the light just wasn't there but it's my favourite spot on Skye as have been going there for over 30 years and always try and make time for a visit.

Breakfast from Loch Pooltiel. I did also catch a small lobster, small edible crab and about 15 Velvet crabs but they were all returned. These Shrimp\Prawns are delicious though

A different view of where I was a couple of nights earlier.

Glencoe
A bit of luxury in Glencoe after the wildcamping on Skye. Great views to boot.

The Buachaille. This was taken on the evening hike and we were to get to the top of this one the next day.

The day was a mix of mist, rain, sunshine and rainbows.

Watching the mist flow along the crags in the glen is lovely.

Stopped for this one 30 mins from home as the light over the loch was really nice.
