Not sure how many people "doing the NC500" and whizzing past will be interested in this but those staying in the area for a while should enjoy it.

Gairloch Harbour, at Charlestown in Wester Ross, which has probably been in use since Viking times. According to folklore it was the site of a truly prodigious feat of archery during a clan feud in about 1500.

One from this day last week with the Aurora in full flow. This one is looking north from the Applecross peninsula towards The Minch. The white light on the horizon is the Rona lighthouse and the glow to the right of that is the lights of Stornoway #Aurora #NorthernLights #WesterRoss #Rona #Skye #Scotland

Remote and enchanting, the small village of Ard-dhubh stands on a spur of land projecting north-westwards from the main body of the Applecross Peninsula in Wester Ross. It is shown here with the island of Raasay in the background. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/applecross/arddhubh/index.html

The spectacular and extremely remote shoreline at Redpoint, south of Gairloch in Wester Ross. It lies at the end of the 8 miles single track B8056, which branches off the main A832 a little south of Gairloch's harbour at Charlestown.

We've added locations to our 'Travelogue' gallery of the area around Ullapool, so you can have a sort of virtual tour if you fancy - P&L

https://henni.photo/Highlands-and-Islands/Loch-Broom-and-beyond/ - our usual BW at the start, with colour at the end.

Had not one but two WTSE's(White-Tailed Sea Eagles) soaring together today over on the West Coast near Aultbea - a nice drive round that area this afternoon 😀🦅🦅 #SeaEagles #WesterRoss #Scotland

This afternoon in #Plockton. I don't think my photos from this trip will be making it onto any postcards, but the grey has an atmosphere of its own.

If you’re a photographer, photobombing can be a nightmare I guess. I don’t take myself too seriously. This might have been a good shot of the Applecross Peninsula, route of the Bealach na Bà, but I was photobombed by a bumblebee. I was quite amused! #Scotland #ScotlandPhotography #PhotoofTheDay #photobombed #bee #ApplecrossPeninsula #BealachNaBà #WesterRoss #photooftheday
