Fairy Pools, Isle of Skye
Not quite sure why I initially overlooked this image, something didn't sit right with me. Having given it 364 days to rest I went back to it and...

There are few better sights on Skye than Marsco hugged by beautiful clouds, dressed with snow and touched by the light of dreams.
Trying to find slightly more unique compositions of the Fairy Pools, on the Isle of Skye in Scotland, can be tricky but I think I did with this one.
Marsco sitting under cloud on the Isle Of Skye near Sligachan on the way from Dunvegan.

The path to Allt Dearg through Glen Sligachan, heading to the Cuillins.
This is one of my favourite mountains on the Isle Of Skye. It is Marsco, one of the Red Hills. It translates as Seagull Hill in English.
I was doing a spot of archive mining, and thought this might add a bit of variety to my recent set of images. The Fairy Pools of Skye are a familiar and iconic location, and for good reason. A set of cascades leading down from the finest mountain range in these Isles - the Black Cuillin.This shot was taken towards to the top of the cascades, at a moment when the sun came out and lit up the foreground, whilst the mountain tops were still draped in heavy cloud. I would recommend visiting out of season, at the height of summer, this place is swarming with people! Fortuantely on the day I visited, there were only a handful of folk sharing the magnificent view.
The Lealt River falls off a cliff near the settlement of Tote in Totternish on the Isle of Skye. It had been raining quite a lot, so the falls were going well when Monty and I paid them a visit. Literally yards from here the river reaches the sea, just at the point where you can still see the remains of the Diatomite works - worth a Google!
Most of the photographs that I have added here from my trip to Skye have benefitted from good light. I was lucky during my 5 days on the island that...
Heading towards the Cuillins on the road from Dunvegan to Sligachan. I love this road. It takes me where I want to be.

Dramatic lighting over Sligachan on the Isle of Skye. The mountains are Marsco, on the left and Sgurr nan Gillean, on the right.
Being unable to see exactly what the sky was like in the direction of the setting sun I decided to head back down knowing there were many...
