I followed your link in post one and read it with great interest.

Seems we are completely at odds on weight... I have even been looking at a full plate camera as a path for the future!!! :lol:

The second is probably more sensible, maybe next year?

Anyway, what prompted me to put my finger to the keyboard was the account of your visit to Skye. I greatly enjoyed your write up, particularly the early morning visit to The Quiraing. When I was there in July last year, the 'cars parked' extended for at least a mile along the road. I just drove past, I hate crowds, quite apart from the difficulty of getting photographs without tourists in their bright touristy garb.

This was my effort... Not a bright yellow anorak in sight!

Without wind and with the right light, Loch Leathan might provide some nice reflections of The Quiraing.

Jan, could I suggest you place a link in your signature to your blog? I'm sure it would be of interest to others.



Ok I concede defeat...but I could have missed one!!

I mean...I couldn't see any yellow anoraks either, despite scouring the horizon in minute detail.

:lol:

The reason I am so sceptical is.... my shot of the glacier at the
base of the Grossglockner looked unspoilt....and yet.........
