On the way to Lochportain, North Uist
Having recently come across a photograph of the road to Lochportain by Kasia-D – see here , I was inspired to upload a photograph of my own taken on this most beautiful of roads on the island of North Uist in the Outer Hebrides.
In the foreground is Loch Dheoir, a sea loch, with the mountains of Li a Deas and Li a Tuath behind.
Thanks for looking and thanks for Kasia for the inspiration!

Richard, that is a lovely surprise – nice to think I inspired you to look through your shots from this beautiful area and thank you for the plug:-)
I like this view with the reflected light and the way the line in the sky extends from the line of the rocks. I think I stopped near there for some photos too, though it was not such a nice day. Have a lovely evening! Kasia

Thank you for commenting Kasia: a bit of sparkle on the water is always a bonus!

Yes Nat, a watery landscape that may be a few hundred miles from you watery land but not so far in shape and form.

Great shot of the stunning Scottish scenery!!
Richard Ion replied
Thanks Shaun. It is hard to believe that I was once standing there listening to the water lapping at my feet, so clear in the silence all around.
