First shot for me, just love it when the cliffs turn red and glow.
Second is good too with the slight misty effect.

I would have to go for the third with out a doubt.

It captures a moment in time.

A huge hill fire thats threatening one of the last bits of Scotlands ancient woodland as an enormous cloud of smoke dwarves the Hoy hills like fog or huge cloud. It gives some perspective to the size of the human effort that is going on below it to fight it.

Good picture full of understated drama......spot on!!

I had a horrible feeling it was kinda near that woodland but its been so long since i've been to that part of Hoy i've forgotten exactly where it is.

Here's another view of the Big Hill fire taken from Dunnet Head on Sunday. Just loved the eerie sea mist.

All three photos are beautiful, MPH! The first is stunning, with the interesting clouds and rock patterns, and that gorgeous ember glow of the cliffs that I always loved from across the firth! :)
