This old man

Old Man of Stoer

Scotland

 

Not to be mistaken for the Old Man of Storr on the Isle of Skye, this old man is located on the Northwest of the Scottish coastline nearest to Lochinver. From the lighthouse of the same name, it is about 3km walk along potentially boggy ground to this location which seems as though it has seen good use from climbers in the past and present. 1km further on from this spot is the actual point of Stoer from which a different perspective can be gained. Compositions here are a little limited by vertigo and how dare you position yourself on a windy day next to a sheer cliff!

I took this shot with ND500 to smoothen the water.
