Eilean Doan Castle one of the Iconic Scotish Castles was just a magic place to visit and photograph. I spent close to 6 hours taking in the surrounds, the atmosphere and the serenity and of course the odd photo or two. Here is one of my favourites, I really like the balance of light and the reflections. I hope you like it too.

I hope I haven’t worn out my welcome but it was one of the most photogenic locations we visited to here is another one.

Romance depicting heroic or marvelous deeds, pageantry, romantic exploits etc Eilean Donan castle bathing in the early afternoon light _As one of the most iconic images of Scotland, Eilean Donan is recognised all around the world. Situated on an island at the point where three great sea lochs meet, and surrounded by some majestic scenery, it is little wonder that the castle is now one of the most important attractions in the Scottish highlands. Although first inhabited around the 6th century, the first fortified castle was built in the mid 13th century and stood guard over the lands of Kintail. Since then, at least four different versions of the castle have been built and re-built as the feudal history of Scotland unfolded through the centuries. Partially destroyed in a Jacobite uprising in 1719, Eilean Donan lay in ruins for the best part of 200 years until Lieutenant Colonel John MacRae-Gilstrap bought the island in 1911 and proceeded to restore the castle to its former glory. After 20 years of toil and labour the castle was re-opened in 1932_ / http://www.eileandonancastle.com/

The Isle of Skye lies of the West Coast of Scotland. I was sitting on top of a cliff on the Island at 4am with my Border Collie and Camera by my side, just dreaming till day break when i spotted the light over what I call the Lower Isles breaking through the early morning clouds. My dreams had come true.

Beinn na Cailleach or Hill of the Old Woman, is one of the Red Cuillin hills that sits behind Broadford on the Isle of Skye. The view here is looking over the lochan of Cill Chroisd. ’’A Graham peak located towards the centre of the Isle of Skye, in Highland Council Area, Beinn na Caillich rises to 732m (2401 feet) 2½ miles (4 km) west of Broadford. The mountain is linked to Beinn Dearg Mhor (709m / 2325 feet) by a high pass. Another Beinn na Caillich, of almost the same height, is located 11 miles (17 km) to the east.’‘ ’’Beinn na Caillich (also spelt Beinn na Cailleach, and meaning the hill of the Old Woman) is 732 metres high and is a magnificent viewpoint, particularly for Broadford Bay which is almost between your feet. In 1772 noted geographer and traveller Thomas Pennant climbed the peak, the first recorded ascent of a Skye mountain. He was more impressed by the view in the opposite direction, writing ‘the prospect to the west was that of desolation itself; a savage series of rude mountains, discoloured, black and red, as if by the rage of fire. The serrated tops of Blaven affect with astonishment: and beyond them, the clustered height of Quillin.’. The mammoth cairn can be seen for miles around and is said to be the burial place of a Norwegian Princess from the time of the Viking occupation of Skye. According to legend, she wanted to feel the winds from her homeland around her grave.’‘ The primary meaning of ben is horn, hence peak. In Scotland the term in the oblique form, beinn, is extended to apply to any hill, without regard to shape, though traces of the old usage are common. The diminutive binnean always denotes a peaked hill, sometimes by no means diminutive in size. A mountain is a mountain in England, but when the climber is in Scotland it may be a beinn, a creag, or a meall, a spidean or sgor, a carn or monadh, a stuc or a torr.

Looking north from ardnamurchan peninsula to the hills of Skye. The white diamond signs mark passing places on this typical single track road. Taken on an old waterproof minolta (handy for the scottish climate!) I’ve hesitated to post this as its not great image quality. However I have a soft spot for this escapist view (bluetacked to my office wall for those ‘im outta here’ moments!) Untouched

I was waxing sentimental today about my trip over a year ago to the Highlands of Scotland that included a visit to picturesque Skye. The Isle of Skye is a hauntingly beautiful land the likes of which I’ve never seen before or since. If there’s one place I’ve traveled to that I’m bound to return, it’s this gorgeous place. This photo was my first ever attempt at a panorama. The land in this picture is known as the Quiraing, It’s formed as a result of landslipping, that is, whole series of the earth falling away from each other at different rates, at least my understanding of it. The phenomena creates an amazing view does it not? I would later see scenes from this same vantage point in the motion picture, Stardust (an awesome story by Neil Gaiman worth reading and watching).
