In May and the first part of June we spent six weeks traveling in Scotland, Ireland and England. The first part of our trip was in Scotland, and after a brief stay in Inverness we headed to the Isle of Skye. (A few days later we headed north from there to loosely follow parts of the NC500 route.)
The weather, it being Scotland and early May, was... interesting. It rained at least some almost every day we were there. Sometimes this simply meant gray skies — and challenging photography. But when the sun broke through it often produced a misty, luminous atmosphere and often impressive cloud-filled skiers.
What follows are a few monochrome photographs from Skye... and one from "almost Skye." The Eilean Conan Castle is located along the water just before you get to Skye, but I t think it is close enough.
