Overshadowed by her marginally higher neighbour, Bidean Nam Bian, to which she is connected by means of a col just a few meters too high to give her Munro status, Stob Coire nan Lochan is most often just used as a stopping point with a nice view for Munro baggers trying to bag Bidean and Sgreamhach in a wee round.
Too bad, in my opinion, as this mountain, still one of the tallest in Argyll, offers lots of interesting climbing on it's north face, and short walk-in times from the main road. The crags start at around 830-850 meters, and go right up to the pyramid-shaped summit.
Rock around here is mainly rhyolithic/andesite lava, with a granite core because this used to be the centre of the Glen Coe caldera. Because the centre of this ancient supervolcano (think Yellowstone) lies right around the Three Sisters, anyone interested in geology as well as climbing is going to have the time of their life here. The summit of Stob Coire nan Lochan consists almost entirely out of rare Andesite pillars, and the bottom of the coire itself cuts into the granite of the old magmachamber.
Pseudofumaria lutea (Papaveraceae) 149 22
Pseudofumaria lutea (syn. Corydalis lutea) is a short-lived perennial plant in the poppy family Papaveraceae. It is native to the southern foothills of the south-western and central Alps of Italy and Switzerland but widely introduced elsewhere.
It grows to 30–38 cm tall. Leaves are finely divided and yellow-green to gray-green, often remaining over winter.
Flowers are 2 centimeters long, borne in racemes on short, branched, leafy stems from late spring to autumn. They have 4 petals, the top and bottom ones crested, the top one with a short, rounded spur curved downwards, and the 2 inner ones connected at the tip.

“We cannot live only for ourselves.
A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow humans...
and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads,
our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.”

They look so different, the dark neural core and the light outside leaves, but they are one and the same - completely connected.
Sorrento, perched picturesquely on a plateau above the sea with spectacular views over the Bay of Naples, has been a popular tourist destination for almost two centuries. Traditionally the town is one of the favourite resorts of British visitors to Italy, and over the last few decades it has ruled as Italy's leading package-holiday destination for English-speakers. The historic seaside town has learned to live with, and make the most of tourism, and in return it offers a classic 'Mediterranean summer holiday' atmosphere - but without losing all of its Italian character and charm. The key attraction of Sorrento is that it can offer a variety of holiday experiences to suit different visitors, from rural walks through lemon and olive groves to a choice of excursions by land or sea. Pompeii, Herculaneum and Naples are accessible in one direction, and the Amalfi Coast in another. Days out can include Roman ruins, low-key seaside resorts, traditional villages and breathtaking scenery. Being well-connected and easy to get to makes this a straightforward and practical holiday choice.

A previously unpublished shot from September 2015. One that remained in the archives as I since found myself being really averse to photographing people using mobile phones for calls. A personal take as you never know if it's an important call with bad news or something. Anyhow, I do remember that she was flattered when I took this and broke out into a smile. Enjoy!
I've wanted to try some different locations along this road for a while. Taken in a series of photos, merged together to increase the amount of traffic.
Firstly, good wishes to all my Canadian contacts; hope you enjoy Canada Day. I remember my visits to Canada very well. In the times we live in Canada is a beacon of light and decency .
This was taken early on our first morning in Stockholm. We got there very late the previous evening, so no opportunity to see anything . We were staying just across a canal from Stockholms Stadshuset (Town Hall ), so we saw it frequently. It’s impressive from the outside, particularly its tower, but the interior is extraordinary. It stands on the eastern tip of Kungsholmen Island, next to Riddarfjärden's northern shore and facing the islands of Riddarholmen and Södermalm. It houses offices and conference rooms as well as ceremonial halls. It is the venue of the Nobel Prize banquet and is one of Stockholm's major tourist attractions. It is not an old building but was built in 1911. Ragnar Östberg was the architect.
This photo, like many others I took, includes water and a bridge, which is not surprising. The city stretches across fourteen islands where Lake Mälaren flows into the Baltic Sea. The islands are connected by 58 separate bridges and metro tunnels.
