One from a visit at the start of April. I'd always wanted to visit this famous beach and managed to get there for a day trip whilst staying on North Uist. The weather was 'soft,' with a steady drizzle and leaden skies all day. The colours were still remarkable, with the turquoise sea and yellow sands. I took a few images and stitched them together for this.

I have posted this image to a request from one of my followers. It is a mock-up of 13 of the club members that go to the Photographic group that I go to. I took each individual’s photograph while they were sat on a table in our club room, and then placed them all onto a girder situated above Manchester. The idea for the mock-up was taken from an old 1932 photograph (Lunch Atop A Skyscraper) of 11 workers having lunch sat on a girder high above New York, while working on the Rockefeller Centre. I can’t give credit to the Photographer because he is unknown. You can find the original photo and info here : aboutphotography.blog/blog/story-of-lunch-atop-a-skyscraper I am also on the girder, had to get someone to take my picture. Hope you find it amusing…..!

Finally managed to make it down the Elgol Road to my favourite view on Skye - in fact the worst ice was on the little lane to my house. A bit of patience eventually resulted in a gap in the clouds lighting up the mountains very nicely. Went for high tide so was able to get a reasonable reflection in the water. I expect this view will soon be gone with the arrival of the rain and warmer temperatures of Storm Bert.

Selected as one of the shots featured on Your Pictures of Scotland for the week of November 22 to 29 on the BBC Scotland webpage.

It took a couple of visits to this spot to get the shot I wanted. The wrong lens, not quite right faces, my incompetence all playing their part. However, returning with the knowledge where you went wrong previously is a great help.
And the cod and chips were blooming lovely too.
