  3. I generally dislike #computerGames , but it occurs to me that I could probably be persuaded to have a go at driving a virtual #snowPlough with a random entertaining name around a sufficiently photorealistic #HighlandsAndIslands , carving furrows in the drifts we rarely see any more ... as long as it wasn’t for points. 🤔

  4. Posting some photos from last year

  7. Coming to the end of another spectacular fortnight in the Hebrides. This annual trip just gets better every year.

    Here are some of my highlights.
    Which pic do you like best?

  8. The no-singing, no-dancing snow plough, operating round the clock 24/6.

    The gritters in Scotland all have names, but not sure this is a real one. 😂

    For those outwith Scotland and unfamiliar with the many branches of the Christian church here, it's a play on the Wee Frees, famous for their austere behaviour, and doing nothing on the Sabbath.

    Sorry don't know who to credit for the pic.

  10. An aerial view of #Kirkwall in #Orkney, coming in to land a couple of weeks ago. Well, the plane, not me personally...

  11. I love the colours in this pic, which I took just along from the Coruisk Memorial Hut on Skye. With the eye of faith, you can just about make out dots around the edge of Eilean Glas, a tiny, rocky island in Loch na Cuilce, near the mighty Cuillins. Each is a basking seal. A lovely calm place to be.

  12. An iPhone photograph for some wider context to the last shot.

    This is such a beautiful part of Scotland and walking early in the day means you can have it all to yourself

  13. A camera shot this time, from one of my walks on Harris earlier this month.

    Minutes before taking this, I had rounded the top of a hill and startled a golden eagle on the ground. No photos, but I can tell you that watching him take off, not 20 feet from where I stood, was breathtaking

  14. The other end of the same stunning beach, which faces a now uninhabited island, on which still stand abandoned crofts.

    The two people walking on the beach will give you some idea of the scale of this beautiful place

  15. This is one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever been on. It has a huge curving swathe of white sand and turquoise water. At one end there are rocks forming the most lovely patterns and textures. The colours are quite breathtaking

  16. On my way home from Scotland and the islands.
    I will never cease to be blown away by this country 💙🤍💙

    I’m afraid there are more pics to follow. It’s been one hell of a trip!
