Hah, well this area is the land of caves and potholes, where there’s all sorts of weird and wonderful names.
- Juniper Gulf
- Redundancy Hole
- Braithwaite Wife Hole
- Bull Pot of the Witches
And loads more.

I like this imagery.
The state of waterways in this country, and the sheer greed and arrogance of the companies tasked with managing, is abhorrent. There is no way that water should’ve ever been privatised in England. Water as a resource is a natural monopoly.
Thanks! Sorry to hear that something seems off for you. There’s no tilt-shift; this was shot zoomed in at f/11 for sharpness throughout. Saturation has actually been turned down as well, as the greens in all the foliage were really popping.
I am not. I hadn’t heard of it tbh.
Totally. Become a firm favourite of mine when visiting Skye.
You’re exactly. Sunlight was scanning across the moorland, so I had to be quick.
Thanks! This is a single exposure from a 210mm zoomed in composition. I saw the band of light hitting the distant house and moorland, with the Storr in deep shadow due to the storm above, so nabbed it quick as I could.
Thanks very much! Those cliffs are something else.
Yes indeed!
Oh aye, the ruins of Dun Scaich castle. Totally agree, an ancient place; you feel it in your bones.
Ah, your shot is taken from Elgol on the Strathaird peninsula, north of where my image is from (on the Sleat peninsula). Lovely moody conditions! Skye’s beautiful no matter what.
Thanks very much!
Well, thank you very much!
Ta!
Thanks!
Aye, in all my time living in Cumbria I’d never ventured up the Hoad. Superb views.
I’m in Kendal! Not a hardship to get to bonny Ulverston.
Hah, I wish! You do wonder how much the photographer for that wallpaper made…
Thank you!
