Afternoon!
After many years I finally managed to travel up to the Isle of Skye. Off the back of a glorious week of sun I arrived there last Monday... just as rain was due to set in for the week
Here are some photos, in rough chronological order. All taken with the Fuji X-T3.
First - off to Elgol to try and get a sunset...

Sunset wasn't happening, and there wasn't much going on with the sea, so turn around and walk up the cliffs for a different viewpoint...

The next day, after a trip to the Fairy Pools it was a whistlestop tour of the 'must-visit' areas before the rain came to visit...
And so to the Quiraing

As expected, the rain came to say hello the next day. A trip to Neist Point was pointless, as I couldn't even see the lighthouse through the mist, so a moody shot of it through the fog was off the cards... Instead, a little trip to Carbost was on the agenda...

Thursday too was a washout, but the rain stayed away just long enough for me to get some photos of the Eilean Sionnach Lighthouse

The same day I thought I'd try Neist Point again, but after about 30 minutes drive I realised conditions weren't going to be any good... so turned back and went to visit the Sligachan bridge. After waiting in the car for a bit for the rain and wind to have a bit of a rest... and then realising it wouldn't... I got out and went for a photo anyway

And then the next morning it was time to drive home... but not before stopping at one last cliché
