Looking down on Farr Bay from 2/3 way up the dunes.

Not sure of the best way of uploading / storing photos here or web-wise for display here - if anyone has any suggestions I'd appreciate them.

I have a saved a number of around Bettyhill and Farr Bay and Torrisdale Bay at my photobucket page http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y272/aethandor/around%20Bettyhill%20Sutherland/

What's your secret for producing such wonderfully blue skys?

Thank you GrumpyHippo. That pic was taken quite early in the morning, just with my digital camera, I haven't tampered with it at all. Always thought the colour was amazing too.

Between Dunkeld and Crieff, the A822, well worth the detour if you're going from Inverness to to Glasgow and not in too much of a hurry.

Lybster Harbour from the sea

Gus

23-May-07, 02:25

I think I might be getting carried away here, but have been inspired by the fantastic photos on the various forums. It's ten past two in the morning and anyone might think there was nothing better to do....

http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/3053/kayakcam2215bm9.jpg

Off Lybster somewhere. The cave below is, I think, called Coveen. There is a beach in it and it has a long history of dark and damp family-picnics, and a few other myths attached to it besides!

24-May-07, 01:32

Wow! You like!

Sporran, the rock is either Creag-na-morlaig or it's Ash Geo Mor, just north of Lybster, around Sheligoe. When the wind drops and the sun comes out, I might go and take some more!

Deemac, they're taken either from a sailing dinghy or from a kayak with a freaky-looking Sony CyberShot DSC-U60. I pinched this photo off the Net:

http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/82/sonyu60at8.jpg

It's 2mp but takes some pretty good photos with no talent on my part whatsoever - up to about 4m of water.

Gus

24-May-07, 01:48

http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/7821/e074xi1.jpg

Encouraged by your words of praise, I'll share these four photos!

http://img70.imageshack.us/img70/5389/e081sm1.jpg

Somewhere in the middle of hot and dusty Spain, there is an old, old castle (above) which looks down upon the town in the first picture. Its walls are high and treacherous and guess what - not a yukky safety barrier in sight!

Gus

24-May-07, 01:53

I wasn't fibbing.....

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/9838/e059gu2.jpg

And lastly, one of the only vultures to be found, some two hours north of - and circling over a castle not quite as impressive as this one photographed!

http://img108.imageshack.us/img108/7534/e232qy3.jpg

These were all taken with a Sony DSC-H1 - the vulture on a 12x zoom. It was probably the only one even vaguely in focus of about 150 we took between us. Like I said before - very little talent and thank god for digital!

Dunrobin Castle

Colin,
Very impressed with your Dunrobin Castle image. Love the composition. Has a very fairy tail sort of vibe. (Disney).

Well done indeed.:D

Sporran

26-May-07, 09:05

I'm also very impressed with your photo of Dunrobin Castle, Colin. It's one of the best I've seen! :cool:

I was in a Barnes & Noble book store here in the USA last week, when the cover of one particular book caught my eye. It was an aerial view of a castle, and I immediately recognised it as Dunrobin. It was a pictorial book called "Gardens From The Air", and consisted of beautiful gardens from around the world, including royal gardens such those at Versailles and Buckingham Palace. I felt proud that it was one next door to my home county that had the honour of adorning the book cover! I'm sure some folk must have wondered why I looked so smug! :D

Gus. Your images of the rocks around Lybster really take me back to my youth. Jumping from the rocks at Shelligoe and from the Quey at the harbour. Great fun but unbelievibly dangerous. You dont consider the dangers as a child.

Saying that, I think I would do it again now, for old time sake, in a wet suit.

I might be visiting next month, maybe I will round up a gang of now podgy thirtysomethings and go for it.

Raven,

Yes you are quite correct, at any time of day.

Nice sunset, I watched that from a hotel front door, standing muttering a series of short and repetitive expletives!

I might have been a bit frustrated watching the sunset on Friday from Thurso, not really justified, the dawn on Friday produced the most beautiful soft colours.

Wow MPH love the second one - could hardly believe it was the Ellan Bridge! I think the flare adds to the sunny brightness (eugh that sounded naff but it is sunny and it is bright!).

I love your majestic mountain pic, donsinc! :) What's the name of the mountain, and where was it taken?

I love your majestic mountain pic, donsinc! :) What's the name of the mountain, and where was it taken?

The mountain you asked about is Roche Miette
2316m (7600ft.)

I took it while staying near the eastern gate into Jasper National Park.

Located in the Athabasca River Valley southwest of Mountain Creek and northeast of Rocky River. Miette Range, Jasper Park, Alberta Major headwater Athabasca River.
Latitude 53; 09; 45 Longitude 117; 55; 05, Topo map 83F/04

Panorama viewpoint: Roche a Perdrix. Can be seen from Highway 16

Naming: The name "Miette" likely comes from the Cree "Myatuck," which means "bighorn sheep." These animals frequent the lower slopes of the mountain and are often seen at the highway below the peak. "Roche" is the French word for "mountain." Official name. Other names Millet's Rock [Fraser]
