Staffa
by Pete Rowbottom

The rocky basalt formed isle of Staffa, off the West coast of Mull one the Treshnish group of Islands, a strange landscape of hexagonal basalt columns as found in the Giants Causeway, Northern Ireland, I've been trying to get onto here for ages, previous visits it has been too rough to land so today saw an early trip out with favorable conditions for landing, finally managed to get it done, an amazing place, and even more amazingly totally dry with a nice overcast sky for long exposures......
