While battling the midges (my first experience with the little bastards) trying to compose some images of the Old Bridge, I turned around to see the summit of Glamaig shrouded in cloud.

Deflated at having plans scuttled to see our first iconic Skye location, we headed back towards Portree. On the way, Sligachan provided an opportunity for some photography of an old stone bridge, the river and the Glen area. Others must have been doing the same as parking was limited but I managed to squeeze in along the road.

well, my second try didn´t pan out as well as the my first try at all. I figured that shooting a storm is really hard as the wind is quite strong and everything is going on pretty quickly as. Yesterday, it was tremendous strom but everything was pretty high hidden in the clouds. So, I tried shooting some of enlightened clouds but that doesn´t look so good as I was too close and thunder were too strong for my setting. I would need much bigger screen on some connection with my laptop to check out everything that is being shooted. For controling pictures I could use camera´s screen but when I would the camera to check the pictures the storm would just finish its´ masterpiece and disappear. So for next I will go back to my previous setting which ISO 100-200 top 3-5 secs and wide open aperture.
The southern part of the Cuillin seen from Elgol, on a boat. The trip to Elgol was very exciting. We took a local bus through a winding single track road. The bus driver really every single turn as he drove fast and in a 'leisurely' manner, while we were clinging onto the seats. The final part of the track to the pier was really *very* steep. It seemed impossible for any vehicle to come back up. The single track road went past some magnificent scenery including the view of Loch Slapin, Blaven and Loch Cill Chriosd which was covered with colourful water lilies.
