Photograph taken at an altitude of One hundred and fifteen metres at 12:55pm on Tuesday 19th May 2015 off the A87 heading back from Portree to Broadford on The Isle of Skye where I stayed at the wonderful Scalpay View B&B run by John Corfield and his wife.

 

 

I stopped several times on the side of the road and traversed some wet and boggy undergrowth to capture shots from here which looked onwards towards , Sgurr nan Gillean, Bruach na Frithe, Sgurr Dearg, and Sgurr Alasdair, with Loch Sligachan over and to our left a wee bit further on.
