This might just be the best Manx sunset I’ve ever seen or photographed! This 7-image panorama was captured back in December from the summit of Sartfell looking southwest as the Isle of Man was engulfed by a dense blanket of sea mist. The hills and valleys around Little London captured the interplay between mist and light superbly. I particularly loved how the peaks of South Barrule, Cronk Ny Arrey Laa and Slieau Whallian in the distance were all transformed into isolated islands in an endless ocean of cloud. Nature really can be mind-bendingly beautiful at times!
Taken back in September on my way home after a walk and family time. Posted now as my favourite of the year.
Looking forward to seeing many more sunsets in 2016.
A thick blanket of sea mist shrouds the west coast of the Isle of Man as seen from the cotton grass covered slopes of Cronk-Ny-Arrey-Laa last week. One of the most spectacular and otherworldly sunsets I’ve ever seen from Manx shores. Happy Tynwald Day everyone!

Fluffy white cotton grass on the slopes of Cronk Ny Arrey Laa framing the beautiful view north eastwards towards South Barrule, Glen Rushen and the central hills at the heart of the Isle of Man. During June and July, the sunrises from this location are usually absolutely superb, for those willing to get up at stupid o’clock in the morning to witness the spectacle. The unusual long period of sunny summer weather that we recently had already seems like a distant memory though, as standard grey Manx summer weather has returned with vengeance. See you next year summer, for your annual two-week appearance 😆

In the far distance is the Calf of Man a small islet. The slightly nearer headland is the back of Bradda Head leading into Fleshwick bay. The remaining land forms the foothills of Cronk Ny Arrey Laa.
The distant peaks of South Barrule and Cronk-Ny-Arrey-Laa on a still summer evening as captured from the summit of Sartfell on the west coast of the island. The long golden grass on the rounded summit catching the warm sunlight nicely, creating separation from the backdrop. As a proper northerner, I haven’t ventured south on the island for a while, this is about as close as I’ve got 😅

The sun rises at 5am at the start of another scorching summer’s day over the central hills of the Isle of Man with the isolated Snuff the Wind mine ruins in Foxdale rendered tiny within the landscape. This image was captured at 165mm with a telephoto lens from the upper slopes of Cronk Ny Arrey Laa. Getting up at 3:50am and driving the length of the island is never fun, and in many ways that’s the hardest part about getting shots like this. However if you manage to resist the alarm snooze and drag yourself out of bed, that feeling of sitting up in the Manx hills, with not another soul to be seen and watching the sunrise is absolutely invigorating 🌄 🙌

The view down the coast towards Niarbyl from the lower slopes of Cronk-Ny-Arrey-Laa. One of the most beautiful coastlines on the Isle of Man but the steep terrain and lack of accessibility consistently makes it one of the more difficult places to photograph. With this shot the clumps of lichen clinging to the cliff top really caught the eye. I love the subtle shades of colour and complex textures that are often found in lichen like this. It is all too easy to focus on the big obvious attention demanding views ahead and totally miss the small scale beauty right under your feet. Note this was taken prior to lockdown in early March. Very fortunate to have this on my doorstep 🙌 #isleofman

The snow dusted peak of Carraghan catches the last light of the day with the peaks of Slieau Ruy, South Barrule and Cronk-Ny-Arrey-Laa extending off into the distance. This was captured with my telephoto lens from the slopes of nearby Beinn-Y-Phott. Look closely and you can see my fellow island landscape photographer Colin Russell at work near the summit cairn.

This the summit trig of Cronk Ny Arrey Laa, with South Barule and the island's northern hills in the distance
Cotton Grass blows in the early morning breeze on a crystal-clear summer morning on the slopes of Cronk-Ny-Arrey-Laa. This was taken at around 4:30am during the peak of the summer heat wave when the Isle of Man was in the grip of weather conditions more fitting of the Mediterranean. The cotton grass this summer was incredibly dense and thick turning the mountains of the south west of the island into a very surreal landscape. The sun rising right over Snaefell and the heart of the island was the perfect focal point for the image. This may well be my favourite image of 2018 so far and will be appearing in my 2019 Isle of Man Calendar coming soon…

Its name means Hill of the Day Watch due to it having been used as a look out post for invaders during the time of the Viking invasions.
The mountain is also known locally as Cronk ny Irree-Laa, meaning hill of the rising day or dawn. It was said that when the sun broke over this hill, it was a sign to the herring-fishers to shoot their nets.

Toward the end of a day of reasonable weather looking to Cronk ny Arrey Laa which means Hill of the Day Watch. It was used in Viking times as a lookout post watching for invaders. Parts of Ireland and Wales can be seen from the summit on a clear day. The summit is 437m or 1434ft high and is the second highest peak in the South.
This Flashback takes us to May of 1968 with an arm stand off between a male suspected wanted for murder and Hazzard Range County Sheriff’s Office deputies on the property along Crawfish Road south of Sparta, the county seat
After a few hours and a few bullets later, the suspect was taken into custody
The deputies pictured are Undersheriff Greg Alden, Deputy J.K.. Frank
Deputy Alan Paloma
Undersheriff Greg Alden, a WW2 veteran, was hired in Oct 1946 as a deputy, in 1951 he was promoted to Sergeant, and in 1959 to Lieutenant. After Undersheriff Doug Baca resigned in Dec 1963, He was appointed Undersheriff by then Sheriff Alan Lopez ( 1946-1964 ). He stayed as Undersheriff after Sheriff Lopez “ retired “ in Jan 1964. Brad Holder was appointed sheriff. He retired after a Heart attack in the spring of 1969. He died in 1970 after another Heart Attack.
Deputy J.K.. Frank was Hired in 1968. Moved to Santa Fe, NM, in 1970 to work for the police department there. He passed away in 2024 and was also a Korean War Veteran ( 1950 – 1953 )
Deputy Alan Paloma was hired in 1964. He was a Korean War Veteran( 1950 – 1953 ) and worked for the State Police for a short time. He was promoted to sergeant in 1974 and 1977, he was fired after accidentally shooting County Commission Chair Walter “ Little” Arrey at the Ghost X Bar in Sparta. He passed away in the 1980s from drowning at Eagle Lake, which some think was suicide
Ghost X Bar was a bar owned by Little and closed in 1978. It is now the location of Sassy's Western Wear, located at 301 Old Mexico Ave. Little was paralyzed from the waist down after that and died in 2000 at the age of 90. He served on the county commission from 1963 to 1978
You might notice only one Sheriff's office unit in this picture, as at the time, some deputies leased their own cars to the county, as in the case of Deputy J.K.. Frank’s Plymouth Fury
I managed to pull myself - last sunday morning for a photo stroll. Glaring summer sun had almost put to rest my hopes of anything worhwhile till i glimpsed this corner (Arrey Road, Powai). Ofcourse other than morning walkers, dogs rule the street.
I wish i knew what i could have done to improve this shot, esp. the colorless sky.. comments / suggestions welcome.
The view from the summit of Cronk Ny Arrey Laa looking towards Niarbyl, Dalby and Peel on a very windy and cold mid January day
A little further along the Sloc road I found myself stopping again! Again it was the mist that caught my eye.
Cronk ny Arrey Laa is Manx and means Hill of the Day Watch.
