A Cleat taken at Portavogie Harbour today. I was just amazed at the luminous of the glow in the dark paint at the tips of this Cleat. It really did look like it was on fire close up. I love the colour of the metal of this cleat too. Iron is such a beautiful colour metal especially weathered iron. I hope others can see what I can see in this picture. I'm just attracted to deep dark vivid colours....

There aren't many listed buildings in Cleator Moor, but this late 19th century block on High Street drew the attention of the historic buildings officers. It is listed Grade II. Business was not particularly thriving.
Featured in the previous post, but this time it is the main subject. This is Cleat, not the largest hill in the area but it was catching the light well. The clouds also cleared briefly to show us the snow capped mountains of the Isle of Skye in the distance.
Seen on our excellent trip from Calgary to the Kananaskis country to summit Prairie View Mountain. The snow was deep as we got nearer the summit, and one of my cleats came off, unbeknownst to me. Fellow hikers behind us spotted it, and hung it on a stump so I wouldn't miss it on the way down.
One from earlier this month ... a few years back, I was obsessed with how people tied up their boats, as no 2 seemed to be tied the same.
These sort of cleat has been used for centuries as a tie down point for ships and boats to a dock.

A soccer cleat to help score some goals.
The seed part is that red bucket.
This view of the Trotternish Ridge is toward Bioda Buidhe and Cleat and between them in the distance is Beinn Edra. Below Bioda Buidhe the Staffin-Uig road can be seen as it meanders up the ridge.
Upon arriving on location to wait for sunrise I was pleased to discover I was alone with “the tree”. A primary reason may have been that I was setting up shortly after 4:30. As the sun began to rise and light the hills and sky, I rotated the camera for a vertical composition as it was apparent that was where the color would be. I hope you enjoyed the resulting image.
